Golden Gun and driver Justin Huckabone shocked a field of six in the featured $8,400 Winners Over/Junior Open Pace at Vernon Downs on Saturday night (June 3).

Sassy Hanover (Claude Huckabone Jr.) set the pace with fractions of :27, :56.4 and 1:24.4. Golden Gun, who is a seven-year-old Headmaster gelding, followed in the pocket before taking over in the stretch to win in 1:52.1.

Owned by The Wiz Kids Stable and trained by Misty Carey, Golden Gun paid $32.60 for the 15-1 upset.

The big favourite, Dudes The Man (Chris Lems), charged late to finish second. Sassy Hanover hung on for third.
