Plainville, ma -After three consecutive second place in the top class on the track, Marquis Lafayette finally came across to win the Open Handicap -Trotting function of $ 25,000 in Plainridge Park on Thursday (September 18) afternoon.
Marquis Lafayeette (Bruce Ranger) came seventh when a new leader (Mitchell Cushing) took the early lead. But he was then overtaken by platinum as (Brett Beckwith) when they passed the quarter in: 27.1. However, a new leader was not satisfied and immediately came back to replace platinum briefly as at the point when they trotted through the stands.
Positions remained unchanged when the race came on the rear tight until Sea Chine (Nick Graffam) could pull first-over and Marker Lafayette followed. Sea can go to third place in three quarters before it in turn radiates. That forced Marquis Lafayette to tip Drie-Diep at the top of the bend while they could deal with the payment. A new leader took a two length lead in the piece, where platinum as pulled and tried to catch up. But it was Marquis Lafayette who rolled the riding train like a freight train and blew through both to win by half of half in 1: 53.1.
It was the first victory of 2025 for Marquis Lafayette ($ 6.40) who is owned by Greathorsse and trained by Domenico Cecere.
