That Ole Bar Stool, Callahan Top Harrington Card
Clark Stables and Tina Clark’s That Ole Bar Stool ($10.80) was a 1:56.4 winner in the $30,822 Free-For-All Trot on Tuesday (Aug. 13) at Harrington Raceway as one of five winners on the card for driver Corey Callahan.
The five-year-old Bar Hopping gelding emerged from the pocket and took the lead from front-stepping Coventry Hall near the three-quarters and never looked back. That Ole Bar Stool recorded his third win of the season and 16th career win for trainer Bobby Clark. Gotta Habit was second; Remarkable De Vie was third.
Callahan won five on the card including two for his father, trainer Nick Callahan.
Melissa Rucci’s Gidget Lauxmont ($207.40, Ceba Horsey) pulled off a titanic upset in the last race on the card for trainer Salvatore Sciarrino, earning her first lifetime win in 48 career starts in 1:59.3.
There will be a superfecta carryover of $4,354 when racing returns to Harrington on Monday (Aug. 19).
