Spice It Up Lindy kept the fractions honest despite the short field by the half
in 56.3 and three quarters in 1:24.3. Around the final turn, Meittinis was
receiving pressure from a first over Sand Top Gun (Howard Parker) and asked
Spice It Up Lindy for more. The 9-year old son of SJ’s Caviar – Spice World
responded winning by open lengths in 1:53.1. Santo Zuzolo trains Spice It Up
Lindy who won for the fifth time in eight seasonal starts.
The mile of 1:53.1 erased the track record for aged gelding trotters of 1:53.3
that he had previously held with Woody Woodrow and Aruba Vacation.
Manningly (Mike Simons) closed late to be second, while Mosignor Flan (Lewayne
Miller) was third.
