He can be much better now getting back to a 7-day cycle, and he gets top billing. (7) SOMETIME SOMEWHERE drops several class levels and gets J Mac which means he will get hammered at the windows. He can win, but he is no lock. (5) ROCKME ROLLME raced tough on the engine last week, but the winner tripped out. He should stick around for another share here. (8) NAUTICAL HANOVER is morning line favorite and holds no edge that I can see. I will play to beat him. [DRF HARNESS: Get Harness Eye PPs for this card] Race 2: 6YO and younger CLM $50,000 (5) MASKEDMAN is 2 for 2 after being claimed by Moreau and he faces the same field that he beat last week. A threepeat looms. (6) ACAPULCO SUNBURN gave the choice all he could handle last week, and he should be the one to fear here. (4) WOODMERE FENN was too far back in that mile. He draws better here, and he should be closer throughout. That gives him a chance tonight. (3) PARTYINTHESHADOWS should be along late for another share. [DRF BETS: Wager on tonight's Mohawk Park card at DRF Bets.com!] Race 3: NW $4,550 L5 or $8,000 L8 AE: NW $13,500 in 2023 (9) HIGHLANDBEACHLOVER hasn’t raced this low since December 2022. He should be tough in here if he stays flat this week. (7) TWIN B POWERBALL couldn’t handle his stablemate on Monday night, but he fits well here, and he fires back quickly to capitalize on his sharpness; using. (6) RESPECT OUR FLAG tried the front end as the chalk and that isn’t his best trip. I can see him sitting and rallying this time. He can be a late threat vs. these. (8) SIP OF BOURBON takes frequent shares, and he is a good one to use on the bottom here. Race 4: 4YO and younger NW $15,000 LT - Pick 4 (7) BET THE BB just beat NW2 and this looks like an easier field. He gets the call to repeat. (2) ID IMAGINE should get a better trip racing closer to the front tonight moving inside and he figures to be the main threat. (8) KYLES ART was beaten by a repeat winner last week that was a big favorite, and he figures to be in the exotics mix again. (3) MAGICAL AOINE raced okay in the Harvest series, and he is worth a look for the bottom of the exotics making his 2024 debut. Race 5: NW $14,000 L5 or $28,000 L10 AE: NW $110,000 LT (7) MOMAS SON BYRNE indicated he is ready for his 2024 campaign by firing a 26 3/5 kicker in his qualifier on 1/12 and he gets top billing here. (2) POSEIDON SEELSTER dropped to a very logical spot and somehow wasn’t favored last week. He showed some grit in the lane, and he figures to be a threat coming right back at the same level. (8) JILLIBY DYNAMITE A ships in sharp from New Jersey and his best puts him right there with these. (1) THE GREEK FREAK gets J Mac tonight and he could improve sharply. He is another to consider for multi-race tickets.    Race 6: 5YO and younger NW2 or $30,000 LT - Pick 5   (10) CABOT BEACH built a strong record racing on the Maritimes, and he showed he can handle outside posts. He goes for the leading trainer and driver here and he gets the nod. (6) MIKRON got a driver switch to Borth, was bet like he couldn’t lose, and then absolutely crushed $20K claimers. He is a threat to repeat. (1) BETS SHOW OFF rarely misses the board and he should be in the Tri again here. (9) BETTORHOLDONTIGHT will likely close late in the mile and finish on the edges. Race 7: NW $20,000 in 2023/24 (5) HES SWIFT dominated last week, and this spot doesn’t look any tougher. He is strictly the one to beat. (1) THATLL BE TIGER should be closer on the class drop tonight, but if the choice replicates last week’s mile, he will likely be racing for 2nd. (6) BIG BULLY was no match for the choice last week, but he held 2nd. He should take another share here racing close to the front. (9) ROCK N ZEUS closed swiftly to beat easier. He can come on late and land in the bottom of the exotics tonight. Race 8: 5YO and younger winners of 2 but not more than 4 or $45,000 LT - Pick 4 (6) SPEAKER OF PEACE just won at this level as the 1 to 5 chalk and this spot doesn’t look any tougher. He should repeat but don’t expect much of a price. (5) BEACH TOUR is likely to get a more aggressive steer starting from a much better post. He can be an Exacta factor here. (2) KAPTAIN KARLOS gets Jones in the bike tonight and he is capable of better than he showed last week. Give him a price look for the exotics. (8) NIGHTIME DANCER won as expected as the 3 to 5 favorite last week but he faces tougher now and draws outside. I see him taking a small share. Race 9: NW $22,000 L5 or $35,000 L10 AE: W/O $27,000 LAST 5 STARTS TO DRAW PP 6-9 (7) SAULSBROOK VICTOR made several moves, and he raced huge in defeat last week, now he gets to drop in class. He should boss this group on the front end. (6) POINTS NORTH is the other dropper in here that rates highly, and he has been razor sharp for a few weeks now. I see him completing a chalky Exacta. (8) LIVINTHEBEACHLIFE will likely try to blast here but I’m nit sure the choice lets him go. He is likely to land in the bottom of the exotics. (2) REACTOR NOW A has been racing well vs. lesser. I can see him closing I deep stretch to get up for a slice at a price. [DRF HARNESS: Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter] Race 10: NW $9,100 L5 AE: OPT CLM $50,000 AE: starters for a purse of $15K or less L3 AE: NW6 LT (4) I AMA ROCKET usually doesn’t take long to win for Barrington, and I’ll stick with him here making his second start racing off the claim. (2) ARTIES IDEAL has won close to 25% of his starts in 2023-24 and he is sharp and dangerous starting from the inside; using. (1) SOMEWHERENTUSCANY got the trip last week, but he has won three of his last four after going 2 for 31. He is another to consider for late multi-race tickets. (3) NYTRO J got a brutal trip and he stayed for a share. I think he sits and rallies this time. Race 11: NW $1,685 L3 AE: NW $3,000 in 2023 (8) ULTIMAROCA shows a stale date shipping north, but it may not matter as this looks like a good spot for him; top call. (3) SERIOUSLY HANOVER is the other dropper in the field, and he should improve enough to be an Exacta factor. (6) B STONEY upset at a higher class level but he has to deal with the two that are dropping even farther than him. I prefer to use him underneath tonight. (2) BOARDWALK JACK should pass a few rivals late and land in the bottom of the exotics. (1) TAYLORS CREDIT is another closing type that is capable of sneaking into the Super or High-5.
