Trainer Dr. Ian Moore has a one-two punch set to fire in the cavalcade of stakes action slated for The Meadowlands on Saturday (July 17).
In the evening’s big event, the $700,000 Meadowlands Pace, Dr. Moore will send O’Brien Award winner Lawless Shadow to post with Mark MacDonald driving following a headstrong second-place finish by a neck to Southwind Gendry in the elimination.
“He was all revved up,” Moore told
Trot Insider of the noticeable hold first-time driver Mark MacDonald had on the horse. “I told Mark [to] put him on the gate. I guess Mark sat a little off [the gate] and he was wanting to go. He had quite a hold of him. He’s all excited [for the final] – he texted me at about two o’clock in the morning with the draw list,” continued Moore. “We drew pretty decent and he likes our chances, and I guess I do too.

But as Hellabalou charged down the stretch on his way to an 81-1 upset in his Meadowlands Pace elimination last Saturday, the trainer made an exception.
“I don’t ever holler for a horse, but I hollered for him the other night,” Dennis said with a laugh. “It was a nice treat. We thought we could make the final. We didn’t realize we might maybe have that big of a shot to win.
“He just responded. That’s him. If he’s in that position and he’s healthy and everything is going his way, he responds. He likes to pass horses when he’s on his game. He knows what that’s all about.”
