Santa Claus is coming to town and he will be giving away cash and prizes to everyone who pays regular admission Saturday night. He will also be the special guest handicapper as your humbel scribe takes a night off, wink, wink. Very playable card here, assuming weather holds and no drivers call off. Good luck!
Race 1: 5 Anastasia Willie- Beat these last time and gets a slight call to repeat; 3 Noble Commander- Moves up off two fast wins; 6 Katie’s Red Rose- Probably needs a start or two.
Race 2: 4 R Cowboy- Draws well & form is recovering from some soft efforts; 1 Master Wheels-Always hangs around, but may need a break; 5 Garland’s Brat- Charlino’s choice over #9.
Race 3: 5 Expresso Forte- Very consistent & may be able to beat a competitive group; 4 Sharp Shuttle- Moves up off an exceptional effort; 6 Meritage Hanover- Super sharp, but moves up.
Race 4: 2 Dance With Dan- Just missed from the snowman last time; 1 Category Six- Rail helps him, he will be forward early and can contend underneath; 6 Bettor Thantherest- Has been solid at Leb, may need a local start; 7 Delivered Rules- Love the horse and his effort, hate the post.
Race 5: 6 Worker C- Gets class relief despite decent form and gets Charlino; 5 Irish Raider- Was solid in debut at this level; 4 Wheresmeluckycharms- Rebounded from an ugly local break.
Race 6: 2 Awsome Andrea- Class relief is the key; 8 Presto Pegasus- Charlino’s choice over the #7 may surprise, but snowman hurts; 6 Rose Run Ichabod- Shows some moderate closes.
Race 7: 6 Jackson One- Very consistent, but hasn’t yet won at this level; 4 Depravedhedonist- Consistent and moves back inside a bit; 2 Seton Hall- 13-time winner ships in from Saratoga, style fits this track; 1 Osborne’s Yankee- A major player from the rail.
Race 8: 9 Step By Step- Drops to the level of his last win, trip an issue? 6 Chris Lee- Gets class relief, but needs to finish stronger; 4 Three Sox Missing- Seems to always hang around.
Race 9: 4 Bell Valley Indian- Moves up but is undefeated locally; 2 Fueled N Waiting- Best draw in two months may help Dan C; 9 Rapid City- Bad post moving up to this class last week.
Race 10: 3 Forever Nugget- Moves back up, but has done big work since return to the Flying Turns; 1 Soaring Viking- Races evenly and gets the rail; 9 Rapid Pursuit- Got the win last time, 2nd tier a question mark; 4 Medoland Tess- Post is key, beat these four back.
Race 11: 3 Kinnick- Moves down into a new class and gets a slight call; 5 Motorcycle Mike- Only recent loss is to Nov. Ohio Horse-of-the-Month; 8 Little Gary Perryy- Snowman hurts him.
Race 12: 5 Beans And Weenies- Was bothered in last, another chance; 9 Sassy Susie- First time Charlino; 1 Lincoln N- Seems to be doing everything right and the rail helps.
Race 13: 3 Cc’s Belief- Moves up but is very sharp; 9 Wow Power- Seems to have found his level; 1 Indian’s Rocket- Should shoot to the front from the rail.
Race 14: 5 Genesis See Yah- Outdraws Aaron’s choice, but I will be flipping the exacta; 7 Big George H- Aaron chose over #3 & #4, who both figure; 4 Broadway Fame- Shouldn’t suffer with Charlino; 3 Ata Ata- Has been very good until the stretch, but appears to need seven furlongs.
