Legacy Racing of Delaware and Reginald Hazzard's Rolls Blue Chip won his Delaware debut Wednesday with a 1:55.3 triumph in the $16,000 Open Trot at Harrington Raceway.
The Wayne Givens-trainee protected his rail post position for driver Allan Davis and led most of the mile in his one and a half length win over Enrico As and Powerful Charger. Favourite Classic Belisima, who had won six straight races, got away sixth at the start and finished fourth.
Rolls Blue Chip, a five-year-old Credit Winner stallion, was a recent $85,000 purchase for his new connections and had spent most of his career previously racing in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He paid $5.20.
George Dennis had three driving wins and a training double. Drivers Ross Wolfenden, Victor Kirby, Tony Morgan and Allan Davis each had two wins.
