Cantab Hall, “George Nap” in Pocono sweep – U.S. Trotting News

Wilkes-Barre, PA – Driver George Napolitano Jr. teamed with sons of Cantab Hall to sweep the $15,000 trotting features Monday afternoon (July 220 at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania, and in his seasonlong duel with Matt Kakaley Napolitano has reclaimed the top spot in the mountain track’s standings.

Capricious One covered a lot of extra ground in winning the 1:54.4 faster division, being parked with cover to a :28 quarter, then making the lead not that far before a :57.1 half. The winning gelding hit the three-quarters in 1:25.4 and opened a big lead turning for home, which he needed because favored Mt Bluebird was coming on wide, making up ground with every step. But Capricious One held on by three parts of a length while taking a new mark for trainer Jenny Melander and owners Melander Racing Inc., Noonan Harness Racing LLC, and Suojalampi Stable Inc. (“Suojalampi” being a popular lake for fishing in Finland).

The other feature saw Napolitano bring in the sophomore gelding Soncando, who has now won two of his last three after a 1:57 victory for trainer Clifton Green and owner Robert Allison Jr. Soncando yielded to sit in the pocket, then utilized the Pocono Pike in holding off Mischievous G by a neck.

Tyler Buter and George Napolitano Jr. both won three races on the Monday card.

Tuesday’s 1 p.m. weekending card has a strong $17,000 pacing feature for developing horses that could flirt with the 1:50 mark under ideal conditions. Free Pocono programs are or will be available at www.phha.org.

Ex-NYC Exec: Son’s Death Should Exclude Mohegan’s Bid

Mohegan Sun casino

Mohegan Sun-owner Mohegan Gaming is trying to get a downstate NYC casino license, but one former state official does not think it deserves one. [Image: Shutterstock.com]

A tragic incident

In New York City, major gambling operators are vying for a lucrative casino license. Tribal organization Mohegan Gaming is one such entity, although a former city executive has argued that a personal tragedy at the tribe’s casino should exclude it from the conversation.

Kamal Bherwani worked as Chief Information Officer for Health and Human Services for former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg. His son, Ethan Bherwani, died at Mohegan Gaming’s Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut on May 18 this year.

didn’t receive any medical attention until 11 minutes after his collapse

The former NYC exec claims his son could have survived the incident had he received immediate help from staff. Instead, a video of the incident, released by the New York Post, shows Ethan falling from his blackjack chair at around 2am. He didn’t receive any medical attention until 11 minutes after his collapse.

The 22-year-old was eventually taken to hospital but was pronounced brain dead and died nine days later. He had fentanyl, cocaine, marijuana, and alcohol in his system.

Father blames casino

Bherwani has blamed Mohegan Sun for negligence in relation to his son’s death. “If they had gotten to him in three minutes, he’d be completely alive,” he told the Post. “My son was going to law school. He was cooped up during the pandemic and celebrating his graduation; he made a mistake… but it should not have cost him his life.”

A casino worker did check on Ethan after about four minutes, but from a few meters away. Once the Mohegan Tribe’s medics arrived 11 minutes…

Betting on a Closer in Jim Dandy Stakes Loaded With Speed

The $500,000, Grade 2 Jim Dandy Stakes Presented by Mohegan Sun at Saratoga Race Course isn’t a Grade 1 race, but the recent roster of winners reads like “who’s who” of top-class racehorses. The last three editions have been won by past or future champions Forte (2023), Epicenter (2022), and Essential Quality (2021), while the 2020 edition went to future Dubai World Cup winner Mystic Guide.

The 2024 Jim Dandy this Saturday appears primed to produce a winner of similar acclaim. Although only six horses were entered in the 1 1/8-mile race, three of them are Grade 1 winners, including one who is a champion and one who is a Triple Crown race winner. The small field notwithstanding, the Jim Dandy is shaping up as the most exciting race of the weekend.

Any analysis must begin with #6 Fierceness, the brilliant but inconsistent champion 2-year-old male of 2023. On his best day, Fierceness is fantastic — remember his championship-defining victory in the 2023 FanDuel Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Presented by Thoroughbred Aftercare Alliance, in which he crushed Grade 1 winners Muth, Locked, and Timberlake by 6 1/4 lengths? And don’t forget about his demolition of the Grade 1 Curlin Florida Derby Presented by Hill ‘n’ Dale Farms at Xalapa, in which he defeated eight opponents by a record-breaking 13 1/2 lengths.

But Fierceness doesn’t always produce his top-tier effort. In the Grade 1 Champagne Stakes last fall, he started as a heavy favorite but faded badly to finish seventh. In between the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile and Florida Derby, he was beaten to third place in the Grade 3 Holy Bull Stakes. And though…

Man, 28, fatally shot in head outside his Bronx home by mugger

A 28-year-old man was fatally shot outside his Bronx home by a mugger early Tuesday — one of four bloody shootings in a 12-hour span that left six people wounded, cops said.

Idriss Cherif El Farissy was shot in the head outside his home on E. 176th St. near Mohegan Ave. near Crotona Park just before 3 a.m., cops said. The gunman was seen rifling through El Farissy’s pockets before running off.

El Farissy died at the scene. His killer has not been caught.

Residents who knew El Farissy said the victim’s family hails from Morocco. His parents currently live in Brooklyn but he lived in the Bronx with his girlfriend.

On Tuesday morning his home was roped off by yellow police tape. Seven evidence markers encircled a dried pool of blood where El Farissy was shot.

The victim’s brother said the family was too distraught and “not up to” talking to reporters Tuesday.

El Farissy’s slaying was one of four shootings within 12 hours in the Bronx that began about 3:30 p.m. Monday when two men, ages 18 and 67, were shot near E. 145th St. and Third Ave. in Mott Haven.

The two victims were with a group when the gunman ran up and started firing. Both men were hit in the legs. An errant bullet also hit the window of an occupied MTA bus, but no one on the bus was hurt, according…
