The two-year-olds were out in force at Harrah’s Philadelphia for a Tuesday morning qualifying session.

The team of driver Jack Parker Jr. and trainer Carol Jamieson-Parker have in recent years often had a trotter ready to go at first asking, and this year the precocious baby is Can Have It All, a colt by Cantab Hall out of NF Happenstance (pictured above), whom the Parkers campaigned for James Moore III (also the owner of Can Have It All) throughout much of her $661,321-winning career. The freshman took the lead with a :28.4 move down the backstretch and stopped the timer in 2:01.2 in the only event for baby trotting males.

On the trotting filly side, the winner of the sole division was Santa Croce, a Father Patrick miss out of Treviso, the dam of last year’s star two-year-old star Kilmister. Santa Croce went wire-to-wire in 2:01.4, with a back half in :58.4, for driver David Miller, trainer Jim Campbell and Coyote Wind Farms.

There were three sections for pacing fillies and two for pacing colts, and driver Tim Tetrick drove the quickest of both sexes to 1:59 victories. The distaffs were led by the Huntsville-Amber Blue Chip filly Blue Point, who won for trainer Polie Mallar and owner Jeffrey Nanna with back fractions of :57.3 and :28.2.

Her two victorious contemporaries were Highway Queen (American Ideal-Onemorefortheroad) in 1:59.2 for trainer Jamie Sullivan and KJ Huntress (Huntsville-Co Ed Desire) in 2:03.1 for trainer Daniel Esh.

The male pacers were topped by Steam Play (Betting Line-Mcsauna), who won on the engine, pacing home in :28.1 for trainer Jim King Jr., and Tim Tetrick LLC.

The other colt group was led by another son of Betting Line, Snap Count (dam Tessa Hanover), victorious in 1:59.2 for trainer Paula Wellwood.
