Until this morning's qualifying session at Mohawk Racetrack, Mach Three gelding Shipps Xpectancy hadn't raced since December 5, 2009. With Jack Moiseyev driving for trainer John Kopas, the four-year-old gelding got right back on track

.

Having left from Post 7, Moiseyev and Shipps Xpectancy sat the pocket through fractions of :28.4, :57.4 and 1:26.1. Moiseyev and the gelding got up by one and three-quarter lengths and stopped the clock in 1:56.2.

From 33 career starts, Shipps Xpectancy has paced to a record of 9-4-5, taken his mark of 1:50.2 over Woodbine Racetrack and banked $483,193.

In total, seven qualifying dashes went postward this morning, the fastest of which was won by A Ps Money Maker, who was putting in her first charted line after having a couple weeks away from the racing battles.

After having started from Post 6 in Race 4, A Ps Money Maker, a five-year-old Cardmaster Hanover mare, was up on the front-end with driver Rick Zeron.

Zeron and the Travis Umphrey-trained mare yielded the lead at the :27.4 opening quarter, but were overland in search for the engine when they tripped the opening half-mile marker in :56.4. Having tussled with attackers when the three-quarters clock sprang up in 1:26.4, A Ps Money Maker would give up the lead in the stretch but come back on for a one and three-quarter length win in 1:54.3.

Juveniles were in action in Races 2, 5 and 7.

Race 2 saw the Jack Darling-trained and Mario Baillargeon-driven Art Major colt Jepson Hanover convert a pocket trip and notch a three-quarters of one length victory in 1:57.

The trainer/driver combo of Ben Baillargeon and Mario Baillargeon clicked in Race 5 with Here Comes Herbie gelding Don Pietro, who also converted a pocket ride and posted a two and a half-length win in 2:01.3.

With Randy Waples steering for trainer Chris Beaver, Here Comes Herbie filly Honey Thorn made every pole a winning one in Race 7, where she went on to post a two and three-quarter-length win in 2:04.

The other victorious horses during the session were Angostura (1:58) and Reach Higher (2:00.1).
