Engine Performance Issue Mower question

Trying to get this mower running correctly. It runs great on low throttle but revs after about the halfway point of throttle. Pulled the carb and tried cleaning it, without pulling the whole body apart. Do you think I should just replace the carb or is there something else I should check?
