Erev Halloween Picks

It's the night before Halloween and WKNR's Halloween Party is being held in the Trackside Lounge. ooooh, verrrry scarrryyyy. Not sure if I am costuming up or not-- I've been Frank Drucker, Roger Huston, Bill Belichek and others over the years. You will have be here or tune in to see.
Good luck.

Race 1: 3 Buckeye Man- No idea of his bottom, but Charlino chose over #1; 1 That Fly’n Angel- Very solid mare should get a good trip; 5 R Cowboy- Moves up in pretty good form.

Race 2: 9 Sandblast- Drops below level of last win & gets Aaron again, bad luck in last; 3 Four Starz Motor- Class relief & should contend; 8 High Gear Speed- Snowman is hard to overcome.

Race 3: 4 Presto Pegasus- Very impressive winner in his last; 6 Udontwantnunofthis- Doesn’t always fire, but solid when he does; 2 Cat’s Run- Inside draw & tactical speed. Saves ground.

Race 4: 6 Happy Hylight- Gets Charlino back, ‘nuff said; 4 Zakman- Some mild closes lately, can be on this ticket; 3 Laughing Is An Art- No chance in last, should be better at this level; 2 Expresso Forte- Was flying in a short-lived bid last week, may sustain better tonight.

Race 5: 9 Shackleton Hanover- May need a “draw-gate” move to win, which is problematic; 4 Ideal Ticket- Has beaten these twice, bad cover in last; 5 Major Degree- Hangs around here.

Race 6: 6 He’s All Art- Racing even better than his lines show right now; 3 Cruise On Osborne- Second time Lasix and that Charlino fella; 2 Gordie How- Gets class relief and should contend.

Race 7: 5 Perfect Door- Freshened and gets a class drop, may be ready at first asking; 3 Kinnick- Just keeps rolling along and faces lesser; 6 Little Gary Perry- Moves up off a lifetime mark; 9 Auto Pilot- Very good form and visions of that scene from Airplane! W/Julie Hagerty.

Race 8: 1 Goatcoat George Tm- Post is his worst enemy. Not tonight; 4 Soul Redeemer- Raced very well in his local return; 7 Zipsnapndrop- Can he keep rolling with these bad draws?

Race 9: 1 Dm Fatboy Slim- Maybe Aaron will help more than Lasix; 7 Fueled N Waiting- Lifetime mark with Charlino at the bottom, Dan is back here; 9 Vilas Blue Chip- Minor honors.

Race 10: 2 Caramel Dumpling- Will be flying late and draws better; 3 Jenna’s Dream- Needs to finish the mile stronger; 9 Maggies Son A- Has a competitive win here, now gets a change of scenery; 1 Blue My Mind- Similar trip to last week, saving ground, but with nose on gate tonight.

Race 11: 2 Llc- Moves up in good form and outdraws the major players; 4 Bit O Looks- Dan C. chose over the 5, which surprised me; 5 Lipey- Won’t suffer with Aaron in the bike, inconsistent.

Race 12: 4 Buzz Hershey- Two words. Dan Charlino; 2 Expensive Western- Credible return & now gets Aaron; 8 Lucky Jackpot- 7-7-7-7-7-8 and an 8 tonight? Unlucky Jackpot. Always tries.

Race 13: 3 Hard Time Gone- Woke up with E.D. last time, may get up; 2 Barratry- Class relief for Team Melloy; 8 Gramma Guy- Good effort from post seven in last, the snowman’s tougher.

Race 14: 4 Step By Step- Looks for third in a row for a hot trainer; 6 Artistic Dreamer- Good effort in last for Aaron and The Falcon; 7 Samcin- Needs to sustain his work from out here; 5 Macinnis Seelster- Looking for some value at the bottom of my super.
