A pair of $8,000 conditioned pace classes served as the co-features on the Tuesday (Nov. 26) evening card at The Raceway at the Western Fair District with Sportsline and It Takes Two delivering as the bettors' choice in gate-to-wire victories in their respective classes.

Leaving from post three with Tyler Borth in the bike, Sportsline posted the faster of the two triumphs in the card finale. Borth sent the Patrick Bissett student from the gate to the top and then controlled the timer with splits in :28.4, :58.1, and 1:26.4. Sportsline opened up to win by 4-1/2 lengths in 1:55.2. Hollys Treasure (Colin Kelly) finished second with Taylors Credit (Natasha Day) third.
