When
Gee Up came from out of the clouds at Cal Expo to pick up her initial score of
2012, it was victory No. 500 for Scott Cisco, who was piloting the pacing mare
for his father Rick.
Scott,
who celebrated his 33rd birthday two weeks ago, has recorded more than his
share of tallies while guiding Rick’s trainees.
“I
won my first ever race for my dad, which was special, and now it’s nice to also
get No. 500 with one of his horses.”
On
Saturday’s card (February 11), Cisco is named to drive half of the 14 races as
he attempts to work his way toward the four-figure victory plateau.
Scott
keeps active in the mornings helping out his wife Amanda Fraser, who currently
has eight horses in her shedrow. “It’s basically just the two of us, so we keep
pretty busy,” he noted.
