Sophomore pacer Batterup Hanover hit it out of the park on Sunday afternoon (Sept. 12), easily winning the featured top class at Truro Raceway.

Sent postward as the overwhelming 1-4 favourite from the inside post in the $2,000 Winners Over, Batterup Hanover led all the way through fractions of :28.1 :57.4 and 1:27 en route to victory in 1:55 flat. He paid $2.50 to win.

Ashestodiamonds, who set the 1:54.2 track record for older pacing mares two weeks ago, followed 2-1/4 lengths behind from the pocket in rein to Darren Crowe while Harry G and Ernest Laffin tried it first-up down the backstretch and dropped into third off the final turn.

Trained and driven by Paul Langille, Batterup Hanover has won back-to-back starts at Truro this month to double his seasonal win count for his Nova Scotia connections -- owners Debbie Francis, Rosanne Langille and Douglas Lowthers.

The Betting Line-Beachbunny Hanover gelding now has six wins, three seconds and a pair of thirds from 18 career starts with more than $36,000 banked in purses.
