It was a case of Dover domination for Ron Pierce on Tuesday as the Hall of Fame handler won six races on the 15-race program at the Delaware oval
.
Pierce, who recently surpassed $160 million in career earnings, kicked off the card winning the opener with A Little Less Talk (1:59.2) for trainer Wayne Short. He was back to victory lane three races later with Southview Whitney (1:54.3).
Fire On Broadway (1:55.1) and Tys Artist (1:53.3) gave Pierce that natural hat trick thanks to their wins in the fifth and sixth races, and he added wins with Alices Restaurant (1:53.3) in the tenth race and Dill And Grace A (1:54.3) in the eleventh race to bring his daily win total to six.
The career winner of 7,138 races is in the midst of his sixth consecutive season with more than $12 million in purse earnings. This year also marks the sixth consecutive season he has notched more than 300 wins.
