Sutton With The Hot Hands
Josh Sutton had a very productive day at the office on the Monday matinee program at Miami Valley Raceway, strengthening his hold on the sixth spot in the driver’s standings at the southwest Ohio five-eighths mile oval.
Sutton’s triumphs came for four different trainers as he tallied with Slymars Dragon (1:55.1, $3.60) for trainer Mark Evers, Harper (1:54.1, $4.60) for Alesha Binkley, Dancin Anna (1:52.2, $3.80) for Daniel Shetler and Velocity Ian (1:53.4, $5.20) for Chris McGuire.
The stellar drivers’ colony at Miami Valley includes four of the first six reinsmen in North America to surpass the $1 million seasonal earnings plateau. Trace Tetrick was the first to topple the $1 million mark, followed by Dan Noble, Brett Miller and most recently Chris Page. Tyler Smith is within $100,000 in purse earnings and could soon be the fifth Miami Valley driver to add his name to the list.
Racing resumes Tuesday afternoon at Miami Valley with a 2:05 p.m. post time.
