Cotolo’s Harness Review, News And Notes
Super Stakes Saturday at Pocono was not rife with big prices
but we did score some winners that complemented our contenders’ list. The
fields were in fast motion on the five-eighths oval and that produced a few world
records, most opportunistic.
Our best showing for the evening was with the freshman-colt
pacers at Mohawk and with the horses-to-watch (H2W) list suggestions.
The Nassagaweya Stakes, which we handicapped with a focus
upon sire-win percentages for two-year-olds this season, slammed home two
longshot winners for us. In the first split, Arthur Blue Chip won and paid
$17.20. In the second stakes mile, Somewhere in LA won for a price of $17.10.
Those two scores put the Mohawk stakes in the black for profits, since we lost
two of the Eternal Camnation affairs for the frosh-filly pacers and the other
“Nassa.”
The first loss for Captaintreacherous does nothing to
blemish his greatness. A duel to the wire from the half in the Battle of
Brandywine saw the “Captain” on the outside of Sunshine Beach, another son of
Somebeachsomewhere, and the inside got the advantage in the 1:47.4 mile.
The stunning I Luv The Nitelife presented a sharp record
that was well earned. That soph-filly pacer is an amazing and superior horse.
With her, the undoubtedly marked favorite, we were second with
Somewherorarainbow for a $22.40 exacta.
Our best winner at Pocono was A Rocknroll Dance, who was a
part of the speed-charged brigade; he paid $10. Short winners at Pocono
included Drop The Ball ($2.60) and UF Dragons Queen ($2.20).
Hillbilly Hanover took second in the Cup & Saucer Final,
Sweet Talkin Satin was second in a “Battle” consolation and Foiled Again was
third at Saratoga.

News And Notes
The Meadows will be dark for a
little more than two weeks for track maintenance and refurbishing. When the
Meadows resumes live racing on Tuesday, Sept. 3, it will introduce a new
schedule featuring mostly afternoon cards. Generally, the track will race each
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, with first post at 12:55 p.m.
For the balance of 2013, only two
evening programs are scheduled: Friday, Sept. 13, when the Meadows hosts
Pennsylvania Sires Stakes championships and consolations for each
three-year-old division, and Saturday, Oct. 5, when the Meadows again will
serve as the site for all eight Pennsylvania Fairs championships. First-race
post time for those cards is 6:55 p.m.
George Brennan reached a milestone in his driving career, nailing his 8,000th
win. We congratulate George, who has not always been given the full credit he
deserves. Also from Yonkers Raceway,
on Thursday, Aug. 15, trainer Rene Allard reached a record 2,000 wins in his
career. The 26-year-old Quebec native became the youngest trainer in the
history of the sport to reach 2,000 wins.
The hubbub about Brian Sears’ seven-win night at Yonkers on Aug. 16 was in
league with a string of favorites that may have won with any competent
reinster. Sears’ winners that night paid under $5, all major contenders
regardless of his presence. That same night at the Meadows, Brett Miller won
seven, with his highest payoff $11 and including an $8.40 and $7.40 winner.
Yonkers’ Pick-5 wager has a new
condition. Should there be a Pick-5 carryover of $7,500 or greater, the Pick-5
for next night of racing will feature a $25,000 guaranteed pool. Any carryover
of less than $7,500 means a “guarantee” of $10,000. The Pick-5 is a 50-cent
base wager offered on Races 5 through 9 nightly. It has no consolation payoff.
The Pick-5 also continues its built-in Monday/Tuesday $10,000 guaranteed pool –
a base number which now could become greater, depending if there's a carryover
–as part of the USTA Strategic Wagering
Program. The Raceway’s five-night-per-week live schedule continues, with first
post every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 7:10 p.m.
