The 10-year-old Ohio warhorse Camcoder pushed his earnings past $250,000 with a victory in the Open Pace at Scioto Downs on Saturday night

. David Myers drove the veteran to an easy 1:54.1 win over pacesetting Lis Deo.

Camcoder now has $250,047 in earnings in 249 career starts. The Cams Magic Trick son was bred and is still owned by Tony E. Coder of Bellefontaine, Ohio. His victory was the fourth of the 2011 season in nine starts. Camcoder is trained by Michael Smith.

Jack Daily sent Lis Deo quickly to the front from his inside position and Camcoder fell in on his back early in the :28 opening quarter. Then Daily tapped the brakes with Lis Deo and the top pacer idled through a second quarter in :29.2 as David Myers sat patiently in the pocket with Camcoder.

I Ota Win and driver Kayne Kauffman ranged up to challenge Lis Deo nearing the half, promting a speed duel through the third quarter in :27.4. I Ota Win kept up the pressure on the leader, but couldn’t get past him.

Once the pacers turned into the homestretch, Myers hustled Camcoder to the inside and the old warrior responded willingly to sail past Lis Deo to win by three-quarters of a length.
