Givens, Remy Brown N Shine At Harrington Tuesday
Remy Brown N won her Harrington Raceway debut in the $31,250 Fillies and Mares Open Pace in 1:53.1, headlining a seven-win night for driver Brandon Givens on Tuesday, Sept. 15.
Givens put the veteran mare on the front end through :27.1, :56.2 and 1:25 panels, and she responded with a powerful 3-1/4-length score over Stevie Hanover (Montrell Teague), who closed for second over Kairakiconfidntl N (Art Stafford Jr.).
The winning seven-year-old Vincent-Paddy Brown mare had been racing in the northeastern United States before entering the Joe Hundertpfund Jr. barn. Remy Brown N promptly won her first start for the conditioner in the Open at Ocean Downs on Sept. 2 off a nine-week layoff before the decisive score in her Delaware debut Tuesday. The victory was her fifth of the year in 21 outings and the 23rd of her career in 80 starts. Steve Manzi and Pie San LLC have owned the Kiwi-bred mare since her North American debut in 2024. The win price was $2.80.
Givens, who has a healthy lead in the drivers' standings over Art Stafford Jr. and Corey Callahan, continues to flourish at the meet. He put together his second seven-win program of the season Tuesday, taking victories with Wisdom N Grace ($2.60), Remy Brown N, Land Of The Free ($2.20), Truthfinder ($2.80), Peetie ($2.20), Stone Sawyer ($4) and Eternal Blush ($2.40), who won the 15th-race finale. Givens has racked up 105 victories at Harrington this season, good for a 39-win margin over second-placed Stafford. Callahan is one back of him in third.
