HAMBURG, N.Y. — The front running Flashy Trick had just enough gas left in the tank and managed to hang on by a nose over long shot TymalTorch to capture the $24,000 Niatross Knockout Claiming Series final at Buffalo Raceway on Saturday night (Feb. 27).
It was a perfect ending to the popular month-long series as the top four finishers were within a half length of each other in the blanket finish.
Flashy Trick, a winner in gate-to-wire fashion in last week’s semi-finals, set sail from the rail for driver David McNeight III. Putting up leisurely fractions of 30.1, 1:01.1 and 1:31.2 over the sloppy track, Flashy Trick knew things weren’t going to come easy in the last quarter mile.
The race boiled down to the sprint to the finish line. Flashy Trick ($4.10) was up for the challenge and was able to turn back the serious threats from Tymal Torch and third place finisher Mach It Paid (Jim McNeight). M G Jade (Jim Morrill Jr.) was fourth, just a mere head off the winner.
Owned by Courtney McNeight and trained by David McNeight Jr., it was the third win of the season for Flashy Trick (Memphis Flash-San Trick) with all victories coming in the Niatross Claiming Series. The win upped the 7-year-old gelding’s seasonal bankroll to $18,800 and $80,334...

Ninth straight $3M night at the Big M; Fan of Terror upsets at 52-1
East Rutherford, N.J. — Healthy dividends–including a late Pick 4 which paid nearly $4,000 on a 50¢ ticket and a 52-1 upset from Fan of Terror in the featured ninth race–contributed to a ninth consecutive card with over $3 million in handle at The Meadowlands on Saturday (February 27) evening.
A total of $3,342,144 was wagered on the 14-race program, extending the streak of racing programs with over $3 million in handle to nine.  Over seven cards in the month of February, total turnover on Meadowlands races exceeded $22.4 million.
In the featured $20,000 top-level conditioned pace, Louis Frascella’s Fan of Terror ($106.00) stunned at 52-1 odds, overcoming traffic trouble in mid-stretch to narrowly prevail in 1:51 over the favored pair of Jet Airway and Ashley’s Husband.  Andy Miller prompted the pace with the 4-year-old Western Terror gelding before yielding to dueling leaders Itrustyou (Yannick Gingras) and Aslan (Andy McCarthy) through a :27.3 initial quarter.  As Jet Airway (Marcus Miller) commenced outer flow through a :55.1 half, Fan of Terror found himself hard-pressed for racing room, only able to shake free in the final 150 yards when he split...

Mor Spirit

 

 

  • ‘AGGRESSIVE’ MOR SPIRIT WORKS FOR SAN FELIPE
  • CHAMPION SONGBIRD BREEZES FOR SANTA YSABEL
  • BEJARANO LEADS JOCKEYS; TWO TRAINERS TIED

 

BAFFERT ‘HAPPY’ WITH MOR SPIRIT AFTER DRILL

          Working in company with stablemate Hoffenheim, Mor Spirit had his mind on business Sunday morning, breezing five furlongs in 59.80 under Martin Garcia for the Grade II San Felipe Stakes at 1 1/16 miles on March 12.

The son of Eskendereya never completed a scheduled workout under regular rider Gary Stevens last Tuesday when he “lost interest,” but was back on the beam Sunday.

“He went well,” Bob Baffert said of his leading Triple Crown contender. “He’s tough to work. He’s a very laid back horse, which is good. He shows us more in the afternoon, which is what you want.

“We’re going work by work (for the San Felipe). We’ll play it by ear. Gary will ride him if we run. The horse seemed to be more aggressive today. Last time, he lost focus. He worked well today and galloped out...

Turfway Park by Bret Battaglia’s Picks: Sunday, Feb. 28

Race 1

SECRET DIARY drops in class after a nice win last time out and will be tough to beat here. TIA CHUY also takes a big drop in class and could be dangerous here. GIVEMHAYLEGAYLE just missed at this same level two starts back and looks like a contender.

Race 2

NASDROVIA was third at this same level last time out in her first start back since early December. She should move forward off of that one. Give her the slight edge to pick up the maiden win here. DREAM BROTHER has been second as the favorite in each of her last three starts. She figures to be a short price again tonight, but is definitely the one to beat. ROBERTS ROGUE finished just behind the favorite in her last start and is a threat.

Race 3

GRACE’S DEVIL looked sharp drawing off to win by five last time out. A repeat of that effort would make him tough to beat again today. LOGAN CREEK shows a win and a second in his last two starts at this level and looks like the main competition. GRAND KUMA moves back around two turns after three second place finishes in a row around one turn.

Race 4

SALTY RIM didn’t fire...
