'Boknows' Repeats At Northside

Published: September 13, 2014 05:37 pm EDT

Silver Dragon made it a tight finish, but Boknows Momngranny held on to score his third win in a row competing against the top pacers at Northside Downs on Saturday afternoon.

Racing from the hot John Hawco stable, favourite Boknows Momngranny ($3.20) left from post three in the $1,100 Winners Over Pace and led every step of the way, holding off the pocket-pulling Silver Dragon by a neck. The fractions were :28.2, :58.2 and 1:27.4 with the final time matching last week's clocking of 1:57.3. Presidential Rage rounded out the top three finishers over four lengths behind.

Greg Sparling has driven the seven-year-old gelding throughout his current three-race win streak for owner Thomas Hawco Jr. of Sydney, N.S. The former Ontario campaigner now boasts 10 wins in 26 starts this year.

The Hawco-trained Lils Destiny was also a repeat winner, going wire-to-wire in 1:58.1 in rein to Colin Kelly. With wins in six of his last seven starts, Hawco has taken over second-place in the track's 2014 trainer standings. He now has 10 wins this season at Northside while Heather Hawkins remains the leader with 16.
