There were just a few (five) qualifiers on a blustery Breeders Crown
Saturday morning at The Meadowlands held under sunny skies with temperatures in
the mid- 30’s and a considerable cross-wind.
Sebastian K came out to get some pre-TVG Final work in and he
looked sharp in a 1:55 win for Ake Svanstedt. Sebastian left the gate alertly
with ears pricked, then allowed Svanstedt to rate him through a kind 59.4 half
with Lindy’s Tru Grit in close pocket attendance. The pair of trotters finished
the mile out with a final quarter of 27 flat, Sebastian K held to be a
comfortable three-quarters length winner over a very willing Lindy’s Tru GritQualifiers who closed it up a bit near the wire for Tetrick.
Race three saw a pair of nice three year old pacers zipped
around the oval in 1:53.4 / 26.4 with Ontario-bred Play It Again Sam holding off
early season sensation National Debt.
Golden Receiver looked fantastic in a 1:52.1 / 26.2 romp, leading
all the way with driver Andy Miller never straightening up on him. The “Golden
One” has the TVG Final next week if his connections so choose and he certainly
made a case for himself this morning.
The Breeders Crown championship races continue at The Meadowlands
this evening with first post at 7:15. It’s quite a card, the weather looks good
and excitement is high. Get any info you may desire on tonight’s racing at www.playmeadowlands.com
