by Al Cimaglia

January 7, 2019

There is a 10-race card set to go at Mohawk Park tonight with the feature coming in Race 8, a Preferred Trot with a $34,000 purse. The Early 0.20 Pick 4 rolls in Race 4, it has a $50,000 guaranteed pool and will be my focus. 

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track. 

Race 4 

2-Real Willy-Has improved under Moreau and will need a top effort, but best to not overlook. 
4-R Bazingga-Slow starter has a big chance for a picture but needs to be in better striking range than in last. 
8-Stolen Art-Flew home off a soft pace, now gets JMac back and is looking to make it 3 out of last 4. 

Race 5 

1-Phil The Thrill-Tuned up with a nice qualifier versus a fine stakes horse, gets a big post edge over main foes. 
8-Its Just Too Much-Filion takes a seat for Roy and faces easier, this is a spot to shine if minds manners. 
9-Lone Wolf Terror-On the lead and broke in last at this class, should like the company, dangerous if stays flat. 

Race 6 

4-Buzz-Will take a swing this guy gets the on engine without much strain and can carry speed further tonight. 
6-PL Jill-Will use at a 10-1 in the ML and leave #5 out. Gets post relief, should get a better trip and can beat these. 
7-Kameran Hanover-Steps up after a nice win, upswing could continue at a square price. 

Race 7 

5-Ideal Jet-ML chalk knows how to win and takes a good drop. Should relish the company and be a major player. 
9-Tymal Peacemaker-Filion steers and gets off a Moreau trainee, can roll late with the right trip. 
10-Officer Jones-Similar to #9 and could find some good cover following that 5-year-old and upset the chalk.
