Not Enough Takes Dover Feature

Published: November 16, 2010 11:41 pm EST

Ron Pierce was forced to call an audible with Not Enough when a foe they were following made a break, and the backup plan worked to perfection in Monday’s $26,000 Fillies & Mares Open Handicap at Dover Downs

.

Not Enough was parked past the quarter and the half-mile poles while sitting on cover behind Pacific Philly, but when that rival miscued shortly after the mid-way point Pierce was forced to send Not Enough three wide in a bid for the lead.

The four-year-old daughter of Grinfromeartoear muscled her way to the top just before streaking past the three-quarter pole 1:23.3, and she summoned up a :29.2 final frame which was enough to earn her the 1:53 decision. It was three-quarters of a length back to runner-up Omen Hanover and third-place finisher Spoiled Beach.

Michael Hall trains the 15-time winner for Bulletproof Enterprises of Boca Raton, FL. It was just her second win of the season in 10 attempts following the outstanding 10-for-15 record she assembled in 2009. The lion’s share of Tuesday’s purse helped her bank account balloon to $1,229,325.
