Sent the 3-5 favourite, Pebble Beach asserted himself on the point and coasted clear of his competition to post a 1:50.1 victory in the first of two $40,000 divisions for the Kentucky Championship Two-Year-Old Colt and Gelding Pace on Monday (Aug. 2) at The Red Mile.
Wolftrax gunned for the lead from post 6 while Pebble Beach secured the pocket moving to the first turn, but driver Todd McCarthy soon angled the Downbytheseaside colt off the pegs to a :28.2 first quarter. He circled the Noel Daley trainee to the lead entering the backstretch as River Ness ranged first over to then grab the lead before a :55.4 half.
