Former Maritime stakes competitor Watersides Kipper converted off a pocket trip to score his first victory of the year in the top pacing class at Truro Raceway on Sunday.

Making his second start this year at Truro after racing in New York and Ontario, Watersides Kipper pulled the pocket and overtook the pacesetting Schooner into the stretch before drawing away by three and a quarter lengths for the 1:58.1 victory. Last week's winner in the $1,275 feature pace, Dreams Matter, followed in third.

Dawn Ellis Abbott trains and owns the Yankee Leader gelding, who had his breeder, Hilliard Graves, in the sulky for the 14th start of the his four-year-old campaign.
