Campbellville, ON - Champion colt Hes Watching will start from post 7 in Saturdays 31st edition of the $1 million North America Cup at Mohawk Racetrack. The 10-horse field of 3-year-old pacers will leave the starting gate at approximately 10:14pm et. Co-owned and trained by David Menary, Hes Watching will be driven by Tim Tetrick and is the 5-1 fourth selection in the field. "Im happy with (post) seven," said Menary on Tuesday. "It could have been a lot worse. Well make the best of it. He can race any way. I dont think anybody is going to wire this field." The Dan Patch Award winner was second in an elimination race last Saturday behind Tellitlikeitis, this weeks 3-1 morning line favorite. "(In the elim), our colt did a lot of work, a big second quarter, putting up big fractions, they raced the whole way. I think it was the toughest elim," Menary explained. "Last year, he did all he could do, two world records, six track records, every-sized track, every which way. Hes just a hulk of a little horse." Hes Watching, 2013 champion 2-year-old male pacer, won all eight starts last year and banked $291,722. Jimmy Takter trains both Tellitlikeitis and 4-1 third pick Lyonssomewhere. Winners of two of last weeks three elimination heats, Tellitlikeitis will be driven by Brett Miller from post 3 and Lyonssomewhere will leave from post 4 with Corey Callahan driving. "He has wicked speed and hell take you to where you want to go in the mile," Brett Miller said about Tellitlikeitis." McWicked, winner of the third elimination race, is the 7-2 second choice and will start from post 2 with David Miller driving. The colt is a five time winner from 14 career starts for earnings of $244,707. "He was absolutely awesome (in his elim)," said trainer Casie Coleman on Tuesday. "It was the fourth time Ive raced him and every time he keeps getting better and better. Ive been extremely impressed with him. He came out of the elim great, hes sound, healthy, his blood is perfect. This horse, so far, knock on wood, hes given me no issues. "It looks like theres a lot of speed in the race. My horse can race either way. Id prefer him coming off a helmet but hes very versatile." Here is the full field for the North America Cup in post position order: Beat The Drum, Yannick Gingras, 20-1; McWicked, David Miller, 7-2; Tellitlikeitis, Brett Miller, 3-1; Lyonssomewhere, Corey Callahan, 4-1; Lets Drink On It, Tyler Smith, 6-1; Ideal Cowboy, Scott Zeron, 15-1; Hes Watching, Tim Tetrick, 5-1; Luck Be Withyou, Ron Pierce, 12-1; JK Endofanera, Brian Sears, 10-1 and Sometimes Said, John Campbell, 20-1.

Compton, who has never won on the PGA Tour, carded a 5-under 67 in the second round, while Haas, a five-time winner and the 2010 champion at this event, shot a 3-under 69. Both Compton and Haas played on the Jack Nicklaus Private Course at PGA West Saturday. A rookie seeking his first career win on tour, Thomas finished with a 4-under 68 on the Arnold Palmer Private Course. First-round leader Putnam, who has also never won on the PGA Tour, shot a 3-under 69 at La Quinta Country Club Over the first three rounds, players alternated between playing the Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus Private Courses at PGA West along with La Quinta Country Club. Sundays final round will be contested on the Palmer Course. Second-round leader Matt Kuchar (71) held the lead throughout most of the day, but a few errant shots down the stretch on the Palmer Course dropped him back into a tie for fifth at 16-under 200. Also playing on the Palmer Course, Ryan Palmer carded a 4-under 68 and he is tied with Kuchar, Steve Wheatcroft (68) and Scott Pinckney (69) at minus-16. Wheatcroft played the Nicklaus Course, while Pinckney was on the Palmer Course Saturday. Defending champion Patrick Reed, playing the Palmer Course, finished with a 5- under 67 and he is tied for ninth with six others at 14-under 202. Compton, who has won once on the Web.com Tour and three times on the PGA Tour Canada, had a rather quiet front nine before exploding on the back side. The 35-year-old started off by wrapping eight pars around one birdie on No. 3 and he made the turn at 1-under for the day. Compton then mounted a charge on the back nine starting with a birdie on No. 10. After a trio of pars from 11, Compton finished strong with three gains over his final five holes on 14, 16 and 17 to put him at 17-under. Its an exciting day tomorrow because I will be a little bit in the mix, but it doesnt change my strategy, said Compton. You still have to hit fairways and greens and execute and make putts. Sometimes its hard when you expect to shoot 5- or 6-under par. You just kind of have to let the round develop and I did a good job of that today. The round developed on the back nine. Haas was flawless on the front nine as well with two birdies on four and eight. Heading to the back nine, Haas tripped to his lone bogey of the day on No. 11 before rattling off back-to-back birdies on 12 and 13. He closed out his round with five straight pars to graab a share of the third-round lead.dddddddddddd Thomas rolled in gains on two, four and six before making his first bogey on the par-4 seventh. After two pars on eight and nine, Thomas made another bogey on 10, dropping him to 1-under for the day. That did not discourage Thomas, however, as he finished strong. A birdie on 11 got him going back in the right direction. Following four straight pars from 12, Thomas poured in gains on 16 and 18. I just need to take tomorrow as just another round of golf and just try to go have some fun, Thomas said. Hopefully will drive it a little better and just see how many birdies I can make. Putnam continued his strong play this week as he made two birdies on one and five. After making the turn at 2-under, Putnam made the turn and sandwiched a bogey on 12 between two birdies on 11 and 13. Putnam coasted to the finish with five straight pars from 14 to join the other three at 17-under. It appeared as if Kuchar would head to the final day with a multiple-shot lead, but he struggled down the stretch, which saw him drop behind the leaders by one. It was smooth sailing early for Kuchar with birdies on two and six. As he made the turn to the back nine, Kuchar made two more birdies on 11 and 14, which put him two clear at 19-under. A bogey on 15 dropped Kuchars lead back to one. Then on the par-3 17th, Kuchars tee shot hit rocks on the right and his ball bounced all the way across the green and into the water, leading to another bogey and squaring him up with the others at minus-17. On the par-5 18th, Kuchars second shot also found water on the left. He chipped on and two-putted for bogey, making it three dropped shots over his final four holes. I guess the beauty about golf is we play four rounds and you got one more chance at it tomorrow, said Kuchar. Im playing pretty good. Im pleased with the way Im playing ... Bummer to bogey the last two. Certainly not what I wanted, but I got another day ahead of me. NOTES: Haas last victory came at the 2013 AT&T National ...
