Warrawee Needy raised some eyebrows last year when he won his first start at Mohawk in early June. JJ drove him to a two length win in 1:53.1, with Needy pacing his last quarter in :25.2.
He won his second start by seven in 1:51.4.
WN won 9 of 12 last year, never straying from the OSS. His most memorable loss was the trip from hell Carl Jamieson subjected him to in the $300,000 Battle of Waterloo.
