No Comments on Nine In A Row For Chapolier At Pocono

Chapolier has now won every one of his nine 2025 starts at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania, making a hard trip from the outside post eight look easy as he scored in 1:54.3 over a track rated sloppy on Tuesday, May 6.

Tyler Buter, the track’s leading driver, saw the many of the usual prospective opportunists leaving quickly inside him and settled the Chapter Seven gelding in fourth as Macmorris Hanover, favoured in last week’s Game Of Claims Championship but this week 21-1 from post seven, hustled to the top in :27.4, then got a breather to the :57.4 half, at which point Chapolier and Buter went into grinding mode. The pair kept drawing closer and closer to the leader while covering his own third quarter in :27.3, reaching the three-quarters just a neck behind as the timer flashed in 1:26.1, with In My Dreams pocket-sitting and hoping for some luck.

Buter continued feeding his horse racetrack and Chapolier just kept gobbling it up, narrowing the margin to a head at the stretch call and then drawing off by 2-3/4 lengths seemingly effortlessly, with In My Dreams another length back in third. All of the first three finishers were claimed out of the feature, for a total outlay for the trio of $85,000 USD.

Chapolier has now been claimed seven times (total sum $198,000 USD) during his winning streak, showing amazing adaptability to constantly-changing surroundings (five different trainers in all). Three times he has been haltered and then raced by P T Stable and trainer Chris Oakes. Chapolier now goes back to owner Rocco Stebbins, from whom P T / Oakes took him in his previous start; the horse has earned over $90,000 in purses between Feb. 17 and May 6 at Pocono.

Buter also won the day’s…

No Comments on Phantoms take Game One over Pens, 5-2

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins lost to the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, 5-2, in their opener to the 2025 Calder Cup Playoffs on Wednesday night at Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton is now facing elimination in its best-of-three, first-round series after allowing five-straight goals to their turnpike rival. Alex Bump scored twice in his pro playoff debut for Lehigh Valley, and the Phantoms’ penalty kill clamped down on four-straight Penguins power plays during the second period.

Lehigh Valley scored the first goal of the series when Olle Lycksell cleaned up a rebound at 8:41 of the first period.

Shortly after the Penguins’ fourth power play opportunity, the Phantoms extended their lead to two. Jett Luchanko found Bump loose in the slot, and Bump finished it off at 8:25 of the middle frame.

Rodrigo Ābols buried his own rebound at 13:46 of the second period, making it 3-0.

Bump scored a man-advantage marker at the eight-minute mark of the third, swiftly followed by Anthony Richard making it a 5-0 game 93 seconds later.

Avery Hayes and Gabe Klassen both scored their first pro playoff goals in the last five minutes of regulation, preventing Parker Gahagen from earning a shutout in his Calder Cup Playoff debut. Gahagen ultimately finished with 28 saves.

Joel Blomqvist started the game in net for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, but was replaced at the start of the third period by Taylor Gauthier. Blomqvist notched 23 saves on 26 shots faced, while Gauthier denied five of seven in relief.

The Penguins and Phantoms go head-to-head again for Game 2 of their best-of-three series on Friday, Apr. 25 at PPL Center. Game time is scheduled for 7:05 p.m. at PPL Center.

If necessary, a decisive Game 3 will take place back on the Penguins’ home ice…
