NAADA -KRIVELIN MAKES IT 2-IN-A-ROW IN NAADA TROTTING SERIES

Bob Krivelin scored his second consecutive victory in the North American Amateur Drivers Association’s Trotting Series when he again guided High Pan Tolerance to 2:01.3 victory, this time at Yonkers Raceway on Thursday evening October 25th . Last week the pair was victorious in 2:00.2 at Monticello Raceway.

In a non-wagering event before the first race on the nightly card, Krivelin and High Pan Tolerance  were looped on the first turn by Peter Gerry and  Drill Sergeant Sam  but as the field headed to the quarter pole Krivelin gunned his trotter to the front and once on top they were never seriously challenged .
High Pan Tolerance had two lengths on the field  at the third stanza  and it was opened to three lengths when the photo-finish camera snapped as they finished ahead of runner-up Winterleebrook and driver  George Newell. Third place went to Guiding Light driven by Dave Yarock.

“He’s a Caddy (Cadillac) to drive,” Krivelin said of High Pan Tolerance, “He can leave or race from behind. He’ll do whatever is asked of him and he’s got a pretty good motor, too.”
The two-track NAADA trotting series returns to Monticello Raceway next Thursday November 1. Drivers in the series earn points according to their placings in each preliminary leg. The top eight get a chance to compete in the $12,00 series finale in mid-November.
