P T Stable's Rebellious took advantage of a pocket trip and emerged up the open stretch to collar pacesetter Leonards Legacy in the $16,901 Open Handicap Pace at Rosecroft Raceway on Monday, Nov. 17.

William Carter secured a pocket ride for Rebellious behind Leonards Legacy (Tim Deaton) through a sharp :26.2 first quarter and the pair drafted closely behind middle splits of :55.4 and 1:23.3. After Leonards Legacy turned aside a first-over bid from 1-2 favourite Sheer Terror (Jonathan Roberts) turning for home, Carter cut Rebellious loose up the open stretch and the 11-year-old Mach Three-Winbak Pam gelding accelerated to defeat Leonards Legacy by a neck in 1:51.4. Sheer Terror finished two lengths farther back in third.

Bryson Dunning trains Rebellious, who paid $21 to win as the 9-1 third choice. The veteran pacer recorded his 86th victory lifetime. A 13-time winner this year, he went over the $100,000 mark in seasonal earnings for the fourth time in his career, pushing his overall bankroll to $711,063.

Russell Foster led all drivers with three wins on the 13-race card; Eric Davis, Roger Plante Jr. and Jonathan Roberts all scored doubles.

When live harness racing resumes at Rosecroft on Thursday, Nov. 20, there will be two carryovers: $187.97 in the Pick-5 (races three through seven) and $1,152.15 in the Jackpot Hi-5 (race 10). First post is 7:15 p.m.
