HAPPINESS ON THE BEACH REPEAT
Nock teamed up with driver Lucas Myers, who led all drivers with a hat trick, with Cash Bet Hanover (1:55.3 mile time, $8.80 profit dividend), Shakas Pride (1:53.2, $9) and Luckatthebeach (1:52.4, $18.20). Justin Vincent sent Nock’s other winner, Everything B Cool (1:53.4, $16.20).
For his career, the 81-year-old native of Willards, Maryland, has collected the winners of 496 races since the United States Trotting Association began keeping detailed training statistics in 1991.
SHINY ‘STARR’: Lou’s Starr completed an early give-and-go to pocket even-money favorite Spring Blake before holding off that rival by half a length for a season-best score of 1:51.4 in the featured $12,000 Open Handicap Pace. Corey Braden rode 4-year-old Sweet Lou-Amantha Starr all the way to his second win in three starts this year for trainer Scott Warnick and owner Daniel Chansky.
NOTES: Several players in the Jackpot Hi-5 held winning tickets with the 4-7-9-2-5 combination, good for a $301.05 dividend on a 50-cent ticket and an increase in the carryover into Thursday’s (February 26) final race to $21,958.71. … Thursday’s 12-race card is led by a pair of third-level conditioned events, one each for distaff pacers (race 10) and trotters (race 11), and supported by a trio of Mid-Atlantic Drivers Club races. First post is 7:15 PM (EST).
