EAST
RUTHERFORD, NJ (February 20, 2015) – At his best, Master of Law was good enough to beat an all-star
field in the Centaur Trotting Classic last summer that included world champion
Sebastian K. The problem was that he subsequently suffered through seven
straight losses for Dan Patch Trainer of the Year Jimmy Takter.
Takter added
trotting hobbles to Master of Law’s equipment earlier this year and the gelded
son of Deweycheatumnhowe responded with two straight wins. He is owned by the
partnership of Lindy Racing, Brittany Farms, Adam Victor & Son and
Christina Takter.
Master of Law
steps up in class to face seven other rivals in Friday’s $30,000 Open Handicap
Trot at the Meadowlands. Master of Law will be coupled in the wagering with
Lindy’s Tru Grit. The entry has been installed as the 5/2 second choice behind
favorite Melady’s Monet.
Friday’s 13-race
card also features large carryovers in the Jackpot Super High Five wagers.
After going un-hit again on Thursday night, the Race 5 carryover stands at
$26,227.69 and the last race carryover now sits at $129,346.68.
