A light five-race card of qualifying action went forth this morning at Mohawk Racetrack. Two-year-old Western Terror filly Higher And Higher recorded the fastest pacing mile of the session, while six-year-old Self Possessed gelding Four Starz Kid recorded the quickest win time of the trotting

dashes.

Jack Moiseyev was at the lines of Higher And Higher in Race 2. After having left from Post 2, Moiseyev worked out a two-hole trip for the Paul Reid trainee. The filly sat the garden spot through fractions which were cut in :28.4, :57 and 1:25.2. The victory was clocked in 1:54.3 and the margin of victory was one and a half lengths.

Four Starz Kid also utilized a pocket trip in Race 5. With Jason Brewer steering for conditioner John Drennan, the career winner of 10 races and $120,928 in purses trotted to a three-quarter-length victory in 1:57.

The other winners during the qualifying session were two-year-old Andover Hall filly Christina Hanover (2:02), three-year-old Andover Hall filly Red Carpet Look (2:00.2) and three-year-old I Am A Fool colt Foolish Justice (1:55.3).
