Death One Three Little Lorry ($2.90) faltered from 3rd place before taking the lead with times of 28.4s, 57.3s and 1m26.2s under the guidance of driver/trainer Joe Chindano Jr. .

One Off Delight A ($5.50) had a second win in a row, this time winning the $15,500 Open Pace by 3/4 lengths over Villiam in 1:55.0.
So far it’s been a perfect pairing for One Off Delight A and driver Jim Morrill Jr. Last week, Morrill Jr. led the 9-year-old gelding to a two-horse victory in 1:53.1, and the two have now met again in the Open Company.
Stop Action had just won their second straight, clocking splits of 28.4s, 58.0s and 1m26.4s, rounding off the rails. But around the final turn, the closers began to rush in, putting Stop Action’s lead in jeopardy.
It didn’t take long for them to overtake Stop Action. One-off Delight A floated four wide in the lead, allowing Morrill Jr. to confidently take the lead. As Gunslinger Hill (David McKnight III) struggled for the show spot, Billiam (Chindano Jr.) never gave up, but had to settle for a tough second place finish.

After two gate-to-wire wins, Con Air Hall ($5.80) finished 7th and 8th on his next two tries, but not a favorable placement for his front-running style. rice field. So Con Eyre Hall, who completed four of his holes this week, knew he had a chance to take the lead.
As the start gate wings opened, Con Air Hall and Johnny Boy became involved in an early speed race. However, approaching the opening quarter pole, Johnny Boy relented, allowing Conair Hall to take command.
In a split of 29.1 seconds, 58.4 seconds, 1 minute 27.4 seconds, Conair Hall (Morrill Jr.) headed home by 6 horse lengths, grabbed the finish and escaped. Jackd (David McKnight III) won the minor prize race, with last week’s British Open winner Rougazi (Ray Fisher Jr.) finishing third.
