Third Consecutive Win For Classicality

Published: May 21, 2018 05:35 pm EDT

Classicality rolled to his third consecutive win, scoring in a career-best 1:52.3 in Monday’s $18,000 Preferred Handicap Trot at The Meadows. During his streak, the eight-year-old Classic Photo-Penn Worthy Lane gelding has been ahead at every call.

The 3-5 favourite left from post 6 and needed nearly the entire first quarter to reach the front. He defeated his stablemate and half brother, Trustworthy Kid, by one-and-three-quarter lengths, giving owner-trainer Lisa Dunn the exacta sweep, with Classic Banker third. Classicality pushed his lifetime bankroll to $591,792.

In Monday’s co-feature, the $18,000 Preferred Pace, Dapper Dude angled off the cones out of the final turn and brushed wide for Ronnie Wrenn, Jr. to edge the first-over Lincolnjames by a nose in 1:49.3. Early-leader Anythingforlove A saved show. Bill Bercury trains Dapper Dude, a nine-year-old son of The Panderosa-Dress To Suggest who now boasts $1,232,500 in career earnings, for Renee Bercury.

Trainer Jack Smith enjoyed a triple on the 13-race card.
