The Art Major mare Crazy Cute overcame a sloppy track, a cool early evening near 50 degrees, and a rough two-move journey to win the $13,000 featured distaff pace at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono in 1:55.1 during the Sunday (May 30) card.
Crazy Cute tucked into fourth leaving, then had to come uncovered to try to catch pacesetter Caviart Cherie, who had gotten away with a :59 half. But driver George Napolitano Jr., who had five wins on the card, got his mare to pace her own last half in a swift :55.2 in the muck to catch the pacesetter by a length. Trainer Gilbert Garcia-Herrera also shares ownership in the winner with Barbara Arnstine.
Coming off of a layoff of 26 days upon changing over to the Steven Brabrook stable, the Explosive Matter gelding Sortie was dismissed at 26-1 in the $12,800 featured claiming handicap trot on Monday afternoon (May 24) at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono, but he roared past embattled leaders late to get the job done in 1:53.3.
Favoured Thisisshe made the lead before the :27 quarter but then yielded to Stop Resistin, who got a relatively soft half of :56.2 before opening some ground to a 1:24.2 three-quarters. Thisisshe was being left behind in the pocket, first-over Clarion Hall was not making much of an inroad – and the longshot board on the board was just moving outside.
The Windsong Espoir gelding Clarion Hall made a successful debut for the barn of Gilbert Garcia-Herrera, the leading trainer at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono, with driver Anthony Napolitano finding enough room up the inside to reduce the trotter’s mark to 1:54.4 in winning the $12,800 claiming handicap trot Monday (May 17).
Clarion Hall got early position then stayed inside and found himself shuffled back through quite a few lead changes, entering the stretch in the difficult fourth-inside position. However, the pace had been hot, and Napolitano was able to rally his charge up the Pocono Pike to catch the pacesetting Stop Resistin right on the money.
