Commander Crowe Returns Victorious

Published: September 30, 2008 01:00 pm EDT

After a three-month layoff, the undefeated Swedish trotting star Commander Crowe showed no signs of rust en route to his 23rd straight victory on Monday in the HallandsMästaren at Halmstad.

With usual driver Johnny Takter in tow, Commander Crowe (Juliano Star - Somack) stalked pacesetter Red Chili Pirat from the first-over position for the final half of the 2,140 metre event before eventually wearing down the leader and holding off a late bid from Sundance Clover to remain unbeaten in 23 lifetime starts.

Trained by Petri Puro, Commander Crowe may next start in the Swedish Championships at Åby.
