Daley's Trotting Trainees Triple At Vernon

Published: November 3, 2012 12:42 am EDT

The trotter Hallin Cash collected his fourth win of 2012 and gave Dan Daley his second driving triple of the 59th season at Vernon Downs following a 1:59 tally in Friday’s $6,000 featured eighth event.

Leaving from post four, Hallin Cash ($8.70) drafted along behind the pacesetting Mystic Splendor until the final quarter, then pulled out of the pocket and spurted on to a three-quarter length victory.

The quick-striking score, achieved on a cold, rainy evening and over a sloppy track, was the 11th all-time for the four-year-old son of Cash Hall-Conways Jewel, who has earned nearly $97,000 for Wanda Polisseni’s Purple Haze Stables.

Daley also won with the trotters Getinonthesecret (1:58.3) and Liborio (2:01.3) to author a training trifecta.

Roman Lopez took over sole possession of fourth place in Vernon’s current driver standings after posting first-place finishes with the trotters Zigaro (2:01.3), Sharpshootennorris (1:58.1) and Nanticoke Snazz (1:58). The three-win performance raised his victory total to 65, one more than part-time Downs reinsman Jim Morrill Jr.

Driver Lewayne Miller secured wins behind the trotters Champagne Magic (1:59.4) and Maever B Graver (2:01.1) to record his third driving double at the 89-program meeting.

Vernon will complete its 90-card campaign with Saturday night’s 13-race program that will start with a special 6 p.m. post time. The line-up will include three “Turn Back The Clock Rewind Races” that will be raced clockwise around Vernon’s seven-eighths-mile oval.
