Tim Tetrick treated Movin On Up to a ground-saving trip in Thursday’s $27,500 Open Handicap at Dover Downs, and the pacer parlayed it into a sub-1:50 score.

Movin On Up dropped into the three-hole while Rose Run Uriah marched to the lead and carved out fractions of :26.2, :54.2 and 1:22.2. Movin On Up summoned up a :26.1 closing quarter and that propelled him to the win by 1-1/4 lengths over Penzance Hanover in 1:49.1. Tarkio took home third prize.

Sent off at odds of 8-1, the Chuck Crissman Jr. trainee now boasts a 5-0-1 record from just six trips to the track this season. David Hamm and Rodney Long share ownership on the career winner of $318,541.
