captured Tioga Downs’ $16,500 open trot on Saturday night. The duo got away

27.3. As the field raced passed the half mile mark of the race in 58.1, Braden
moved Don’t Know Chip first up to contend head to head with Aruba Vacation by
three quarters in 1:26.1. Around the final turn, Braden asked for more from

late to finish second, while All About Justice (Mike Simons) hung on for third.
