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.

COVID-19 has had a profound impact on pretty much every aspect of life on the planet since early 2020 and Rocky Mountain PBS, Colorado s largest public television network, is no exception.
Veteran journalist John Ferrugia recently left Rocky Mountain PBS for a position with COLab, aka the Colorado News Collaborative, billed as a nonprofit, statewide media resource hub that s currently working with more than 100 news organizations across the state including his former employer. Although Ferrugia stresses that his departure from Rocky Mountain PBS wasn t acrimonious, he says a focus shift in terms of news coverage necessitated by tight resources influenced his decision.
