DGs Caviar stretched his winning streak at Pompano Park to four with a convincing win for trainer-driver Andy Shetler in 1:53 a new lifetime mark in the $11,500 Open Handicap Trot on Monday night (Dec. 28).
The four-year-old son of Prime Time Caviar, bred and owned by Daniel Graber, put a margin of 3-3/4 lengths between himself and Muscles For Life (Wally Hennessey) while The Lionking AS (Kevin Wallis) finished third, eight lengths away. Born To Thrive finished fourth, with BJ Lorado picking up the nickel in the classy septet.
Explosivebreakaway, the 6-to-5 favourite, made a miscue leaving to lose all opportunity.
As the wings folded, BJ Lorado zipped off the wings from post two and put Celebrity Miracle, starting from the inside, in the pocket behind him and ripped through first half panels of :27 and :56 with Muscles For Life settling in third and DGs Caviar finding a spot in fourth.
