Harrington Open To Slick Tony
George Leager's Slick Tony was a 1:52.4 winner in the $18,000 Open Monday at Harrington Raceway.
The four-year-old No Spin Zone stallion surged to the lead in the stretch, passing pacesetter Blazing Bobby Sox for his fourth win of the year. Sicily was third. Slick Tony settled in fourth position early before a game first over bid under confident handling by Foster.
Trained by Leager, it was the 22nd career win in 48 starts for Slick Tony ($5.80, Russell Foster), who was the youngest horse in the field.
Jo Ann Looney-King's Little Ben ($3.60, Victor Kirby) won the sub-featured $11,000 Open II in 1:52.3 for trainer Jim King, Jr.
Kirby and Ross Wolfenden each had four wins.
