Rich Lombardo, David Kryway, Eric Good and Josh Green’s Jacks Legend N notched his 18th career win Monday in the featured $20,000 Open Pace at Harrington Raceway.
The seven-year-old Bettors Delight gelding and driver Pat Berry grinded away in first-over position at pacesetter Goldberg and gained the lead at the top of the stretch before holding off JJ Flynn, who closed gamely in the passing lane, for a narrow win. Penzance Hanover was third.
The winner was trained by co-owner Green, who had three wins on the card, including Machaholic and ($54.80) and American Admiral ($6.20).
It was the second start of the season for Jacks Legend N, who banked $101,528 in an abbreviated 2020 campaign (16 starts). He paid $4.60 to win.
