Roaring to victory

The Hardison & Hambleton kennel entry poured it in the final turn and edged Quirky Chandler for the win.

“I knew she had to get outside,” said Webb, the dog’s trainer. “She didn’t have a good break but waited” and made her move.

And it was quite a move. She kept moving up the ranks, then put the burners on in the home stretch for the win. She won in 31.13.

She paid $25, $20.40, $26.80.

She held off a strong-running Quirky Chandler, who paid $14.60 and $13. JF Callin Radar finished third, paying $14.40.

The trifecta was 5-6-all and the super was a 1-ticket winner.

Superior Product, who was attempting to tie the consecutive win record, fell short. Noble Bahama’s 1991 record of 13 in a row stands.
