Thursday, December 14 ONLYTHEGOODDIYOUNG (CLM20/34000FM) finished full of pace from an impossible spot in last and bears watching. FLASH TOTHE FINISH (CLMHCP8/9000) was a strong wire to wire winner in latest and can take another. DIAL ME UP (CLMHCP10/12000FM) finished strong from the moon in last to be second best to the wire to wire winner. HES GOT SWAGGER (CLMHCP8/9000) was second best on the board and on the track with late-closing rally in latest. Friday, December 15 DOWEDEALINANDWHY (NW2000) broke before and after the start, sat to the rear, rallied to the third panel, went wide and got up for second with big finish. SAULSBROOK OLYMPIA (NW8000FM) yielded, retook and was much the best in open-length romp. STYLE FOR A MILE (NW14000FM) set a steady clip and was a handy winner in fast mile. TWIN B TIPSTER (NW4500FM) grinded up uncovered in 2nd-best effort to the front-stepping favorite. ALABAMA HANNAH (NIAGARA) was a game front-stepping winner in last despite what the chart implies because the one putting up the numbers was inside the pylons throughout. Saturday, December 16 HIGHLANDBEACHLOVER (NW8000) was parked the mile, challenged the pacesetting favorite with the well-bet second choice sitting pocket. Gutted out the third place with top two finishing 1-2. THE MOMENT AROSE (NW2) rallied wide from nowhere with aim in the late stages at over 10-1 but was nailed. SO MUCH MORE (NW215000) tucked early, came uncovered, challenged to a narrow lead but was caught by the late rush of the late-closing favorite. THRILLING SEELSTER (NW15000) was parked and found a tuck, moved to the third panel with cover the final turn, closed well to be second best. Monday, December 18 HP MAMA B (PRF) trotter buried the field in wire to wire romp and will be hard to overtake with similar effort.  PIKACHU HANOVER (NW14000) yielded, retook and got away winning easily all wrapped up through the lane. SWAN DIEGO (NW8000) was in the pocket in tight spot, cleared late and closed well at 45-1. DONT POKE THE DRAGON (CLMHCP30/40000) won easily and was claimed. Should be ready to give it a good try in next. WARRAWEE XALT (CLMHCP55/65000) left to the lead, yielded and was shuffled, had traffic problems trying to rally between horses and would be no shocker in next.
