Race 1 Comments:  LUCYS MAN finished with sharp late trot to nail place behind much the best winner. Finds a good spot against field loaded with early speed and may rally by late.

Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 1
Horse Name: MRS KRABAPPEL
Odds: 4-1

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: METRO GLIDE
Odds: 3-1

Race 3 Comments:  TWICE AN ANGEL had tough spot in latest after a no shot try chasing 1:55 mile at Pocono two back. Mare drops to winning level and finds a good spot. ANYTIME ANYPLACE was parked the mile upon shipping in from Ohio and didn’t fade badly considering.   Is Taggart’s choice over two others in here, including top one, and appears the one to beat.

Race 4

Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: STAY BEAUTIFUL**
Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: GORGEOUS RANAY
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: PROUDAMERICANGIRL
Odds: 9-2

Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: LYONS WOODLANDS
Odds: 4-1

Race 4 Comments:  STAY BEAUTIFUL had a tough uncovered trip on sub-freezing Catskill afternoon and understandably tired at 2-5 (ugh!). Mare was claimed out of the race for the fourth time in her last five races and can make amends for barn that does well with their claims.

Race 5

Horse Number: 2
Horse Name: ER BETTY
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 5
Horse Name: PHOTO MASTER
Odds: 6-1

Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: FLIGHT OF THE KIWI
Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: REVEREND NANNY
Odds: 5-1

Race 5 Comments:  ER BETTY was a strong brush and crush winner against similar last time. Mare seems to be straightening out for strong trot connections and is the choice to repeat.

 

 

Race 6

Horse Number: 6
Horse Name: GLAMORGAL*
Odds: 4-1

Horse Number: 7
Horse Name: BEST CHOICE
Odds: 5-2

Horse Number: 2

Odds: 7-2

Horse Number: 4
Horse Name: THE NEW AMERICANA
Odds: 3-1

Race 6 Comments:  GLAMORGAL was used hard on the lead on afternoon where speed did not hold up. Mare was racing in sharp form prior and now returns to level of strong wire to wire score two back recording her fastest mile in two years. Looks best if not over extended early.

Odds: 3-1

Horse Number: 3
Horse Name: KISS MY SASS
Odds: 7-2

Horse Number: 1
