After a pair of heart breaking half-length setbacks the past two weeks, Mr Ham Sandwich avoided disappointment again by rolling to a solid three-quarter-length victory over Black Is Back in the $10,600 Class AA-Open Handicapped Pace at Buffalo Raceway on Saturday night (May 1). Mr Ham Sandwich covered the mile in 1:54 over the fast track, the fastest time of the meet.
Sitting fourth after the half-mile station, driver David McNeight III put Mr Ham Sandwich on the rim and took command from pacesetting Thor De Vie with a quarter to go. Powerfully striding to a two-length margin heading for home, Mr Ham Sandwich had no issues in turning back Black Is Back while Thor De Vie finished in third.
