Hohner's Crew Triples Up At Georgian
Trainer Stacey Hohner had her starters hitting on all cylinders on Tuesday evening at Georgian Downs, and that was good news for the longshot players.
Blue Water, who was sent off at 4-1, powered to a 1:54.3 score for Hohner and driver Gerry Belanger in Race 7. The gelding drew clear to win by two lengths for Belanger Racing Stables of Barrie, ON.
Goldendreamkillean rallied to a 1:54.2 victory in Race 10, and in doing so gave the same connections their second trip to victory lane. It was the 31st lifetime win for the nine-year-old son of Run The Table, who erupted for the 11-1 upset.
Keith Cowden's Littlefoot Hanover pulled off a 12-1 shocker in Race 12 for Hohner and Belanger, who teamed up for the 1:54 score with the four-year-old daughter of Dragon Again.
Hohner, who enjoyed a 48-win season last year, bumped her 2008 total to 19 thanks to tonight's training triple. Her lifetime earnings surpassed the $1 million mark earlier this season.
