A 'Wild Wild' Friday For Hall

Published: November 6, 2020 05:45 pm EST

Forced to go three wide near the three-quarters, Wild Wild Western still had plenty of lick in the lane as he captured Friday’s $17,900 Open Handicap Pace at The Meadows in a career-best 1:50.1.

Wild Wild Western was third over when his cover began to falter, the signal for Tony Hall to send him three wide. The four-year-old son of Western Ideal-Caila Fra zipped the final panel in :27.4 and defeated Carolina Beach, who shot the Lightning Lane, by 2-1/2 lengths. Crusades rallied for show.

Norm Parker trains Wild Wild Western, who now has banked $233,160 for Jacobs Creek Racing, Andrew Altobelli and John Deters.

It was one of five wins for Hall on the 13-race card. Dave Palone also enjoyed a big Friday with a triple.
