This Is The Plan, winner of the $514,000 Borgata Series Final at Yonkers on April 19, headlines a field of nine of the sport’s fastest horses.

The six-year-old has amassed a career bankroll of over $2-million. Century Farroh, champion of the $500,000 Breeders Crown for veteran pacers in 2020 and the O Brien Horse of the Year, is also expected to be among the Battle of Lake Erie favorites.

Rich And Miserable, the 2019 Trotter of the Year at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono, moved even closer to $500,000 in career earnings with a 1:54.2 victory in the $11,200 featured event on the Sunday twilight card. Driver Tyler Buter spotted the Explosive Matter gelding third from post 7 before the :28 quarter, then brushed him to command and put up middle splits of :57 and 1:26. Blenheim made a good charge in the stretch, but the :28.2 last split put up by Rich And Miserable was enough to keep him one-and-a-half lengths ahead of that rival.

The veteran has done especially well at Pocono, as his record at the mountain oval is 11 wins in 19 starts, including his last two outings. ....
If future wagering were offered today on the Borgata Pacing Series Final, which will be held Monday, April 19, 2021 after five preliminary legs, the two favourites would undoubtably be Let It Ride and This Is The Plan. After 40 of the 47 eligible pacers were entered into the Borgata Series first leg and split into five divisions, those two favourites found themselves in the same split–the first one of the series–which begins tonight (March 15) in race three. Let It Ride N won two Group 1 stakes in Australia in 2018, but lost his form and settled into a winless rut in 2020. He shipped to America last fall to Nifty Norman’s stable and added Lasix, which Norman credited as a key change for the eight-year-old Rock N Roll Heaven gelding. ....
