Prince Hal Hanover (Donating) Made the back-to-back Grand Circuit Stakes Harness Racing victories while he followed his Adios victory with an authoritative score in the $ 300,000 grade 2 Carl Milstein Memorial on Saturday 9 August in MGM Northfield Park.
Swingtown (Ronnie Wrenn Jr.) and Prince Hal Hanover (Todd McCarthy) were both brought into play at the first turn. Smooth Dream (Andrew McCarthy) came in third place and looked at the pair of duel when the field entered the back. Todd McCarthy allowed Swingtown to erase before he reached the quarter in a blazing way: 25.4, but he was not satisfied to sit in the bag while he moved Prince Hanover back to the leaders who came in for the first time.
As the field approached in: 54.3, a smooth dream was washed away by Primo Maschio (Trae Porter). Porter then put Primo Maschio back on the rail, so that Twisted Destiny (Dexter Dunn) could go in second place with quick choice (Scott Zeron) on his rear third-over. In the backstretch, flexible dream continued, and when they approached the three -quarters in 1: 22.4, the stage was set for a duel by the last quarter of a mile.
Around the last turn, Prince Hal Hanover stepped free from a smooth dream. Twisted Destiny tilted the lid three wide, but when they came through the piece, the lead of Prince Hal Hanover was insurmountable and came home to win 1-3/4 lengths in 1: 50.1. Twisted Destiny ran out completely, but he had to settle for the second. Swingtown finished third.
