Kirby wins 3, Awsome Valley repeats in Wednesday feature
On an abbreviated program at Harrington Raceway Wednesday, driver Victor Kirby captured a third of the races with three driving winners.
With only 9 races carded, Kirby notched wins in the fourth race with Manchine ($10), sixth with Make Magic ($2.10) and eighth with Josh’s Z Tam ($5.80).
Barbara Boese's Awsome Valley ($2.20, Tony Morgan) was a well-backed winner in his second straight win in the featured $11,200 conditioned trot in 1:56.1.
The 4-year-old Valley Victor gelding was heavily favored and assumed command approaching the opening quarter. Morgan and Awsome Valley never looked back in his one length score over Uwantapieceofme and Skyway Priss. Trained by Ryan McInnis, Awsome Valley registered his sixth win of the season as his seasonal earnings boosted to more than $63,000.
The pick 4 was a popular play on the program as more than $16,000 was wagered into the pool, which produced a $1,500 payout.
George Dennis and Allan Davis each had a driving double. |
