Runover Feeling rallied from second-over Saturday night, winning Yonkers Raceway's $36,000 Open Handicap Pace

.

With George Brennan (four winners on the card) driving for trainer Mark Ford, Runover Feeling was in no particular hurry early.

Leaving from post position No. 6, he watched as Eckstrom (Yannick Gingras) stepped around Fox Valley Tribal (Stephane Bouchard) through intervals of :27.2 and :57.1. Southwind Tabor (Greg Grismore) tried it first-up, but wasn't making any progress toward a 1:25.2 three-quarters.

The leader remained ahead in the polls turning for home, though he could not close the deal. Fox Valley Tribal ducked inside, but the last-minute momentum belonged to Runover Feeling.

That one, despite a dull tow, powered on by. He prevailed over Fox Valley Tribal by a half-length in 1:54.2, with Soutthind Tabor, Eckstrom and Artist Cafe (Pat Lachance) completing the cashers.

Giddy Up Lucky, assigned this week's eight-hole after last week's victory, never fired as the 2-1 choice and finished seventh.

For Runover Feeling, a seven-year-old Western Hanover gelding owned by Bob DiNozzi, he returned $17.20 (fifth choice) for his fifth win in 42 seasonal starts. The exacta paid $70, with the triple returning $261.
