A trio of second leg $27,778 Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund (DSBF) action for two-year-old pacing colts and geldings highlighted the Monday 15-race Harrington Raceway program. 

The Ron Burke trained Watch Em Win ($2.10, Tim Tetrick) was a runaway winner in the quickest of the three splits, romping by 14-1/4 lengths in 1:53.1. A loose leader throughout, Watch Em Win cut the mile with fractions of :28.3, :56.3 and 1:25 before cruising over Hes A Webster (Troy Beyer) and K Ds Song (Montrell Teague). The victorious Hes Watching-Winners Over colt is owned by Burke Racing Stable (Fredericktown, PA), Knox Services (Mt Vernon, OH), Phillip Collura (Mountain Top, PA) and Weaver Bruscemi (Canonsburg, PA) and has won five of eight this year.

Stained Glass ($2.60, Ross Wolfenden) was a 1:56.1 winner in the first division of the card over Roman Raider (Barton Dalious) and Arette (Allan Davis). The Roddys Bags Again-Ideal Paper gelding was a wire-to-wire winner through fractions of :29, :58.2 and 1:27.3 before winning by 1-3/4 lengths. The effort was a maiden breaking score for Stained Glass who is trained and co-owned by Bryan Ruitt Jr. (Whaleyville, MD) along with John Dizon (Mardela Springs, MD).

In the final division, C Millertimeagain ($3.40, Corey Callahan) marched to a 1:53.2 win for co-owner/trainer Erv Miller (Wind Gap, PA), Joellen Frowley (Richland Center, WI) and James Knowlton (Richland Center, WI). The Roddys Bags Again-Total Conviction gelding led through :28, :56.2 and 1:25.2 before fending off Slugger On Deck (Allan Davis) and South Of The Hood (Montrell Teague) to win by 1-1/4 lengths.

The top eight point earners will return to compete in the $110,000 USD final on Oct. 13.

In the $25,000 Open, Andrew Glassmeyer's Sweet Angel Boy ($8, Ross Wolfenden) won his fifth race of the year on the front end in 1:51.4 over Master Rigger (Barton Dalious) and Stevens Saloon (Jason Thompson).
