If you would have bet My Money Honey on Monday (10/19) at The Meadows, race twelve, you would have picked up a big ticket!  Drawing the rail, My Money Honey (Dan Rawlings) got away fourth.  Sitting fourth until the top of the lane, My Money Honey paced a last quarter in 28.2 to cross the wire second, his mile in 1:54.1.  He lit up the board, paying $28.20 to place and $12.40 to show.

 

On to Ohio, Dakota Ole also drew the rail at Hollywood Gaming Dayton Raceway in race fourteen.  Fourth at the quarter and falling back to seventh at the three-quarter-pole, Dakota Ole (Trevor Smith) poured it on to place second, pacing his mile in 1:55.0, last quarter in 29.1.

 

Wednesday (10/21) at Harrington Raceway, Pond Jumper (Pat Berry) drew the four hole in race twelve.  With a brush from the gate, Pond Jumper was parked out by Just As Striking (Ross Wolfenden) as they passed the quarter-pole.  Taking over the lead, Pond Jumper did look back as he trotted around the track.  With the mile clocked in 1:57.4, it was all Pond Jumper for the win.

 

Over at Monticello on Thursday (10/22), Jumping Jillybean left from post position three.  Parked third at the quarter, Jumping Jillybean (Cory Stratton), settled back into fifth, on the rail.  Following the field, Jumping Jillybean had to wait for traffic to clear as they raced down the stretch.  With a last quarter in 29.4, Jumping Jillybean jumped from fifth to hit the board with a third place finish.

 

At Northville Downs on Friday (10/23) Lynn Bin Con Kin (David Lake) drew the five-hole and Bunkerhill Jill (Ryan Ver Hage) had post position eight.  As the gate folded, Lynn Bin Con Kin paced away fourth but made a charge to the front.  Parked second, Lynn Bin Con Kin and Full Of Delight (Art Mc Ilmurray) matched stride for stride as they raced around the track.  As they neared the wire, Lynn Bin Con Kin held on for second by a neck, the mile in 1:59.3.  Bunkerhill Jill had a brutal trip.  Parked eighth at the half and double parked eighth at the three-quarter, Bunkerhill Jill finished seventh and was picked up in a claim.
