Gary Levine won the training title at Saratoga Casino Hotel in 2020 and has been a force among local conditioners for the better part of the last decades.
On Monday afternoon, Levine’s stable had six of its participants compete at the Spa on an afternoon in which the former leading trainer enjoyed a significant amount of success. Levine scored two wins, a pair of seconds and a third-place finish on the Monday card.
His pair of young trotters No Mo Fashion (sired by Crescent Fashion) and Cash In The Bank (sired by Dover Dan) recorded their first local victories on the matinee card as both trotters went coast-to-coast with Billy Dobson in the sulky.
No Mo Fashion shook his “seconditis” when, after being the runner-up in five consecutive starts, he set a new lifetime mark on Monday stopping the timer in 2:01.1.
Cash In The Bank completed the Monday double for Levine. Another young trotter from his stable, T Rex Blue Chip, was the runner-up to hit the board for the third straight week since joining the Levine barn. Veteran pacers Major Makover and Gunrneedabgrboat A finished second and third in what was a big day for the Spa’s former top conditioner, who has started out his season right back near the top of the trainer standings.
Live racing continues on Tuesday afternoon with a matinee that begins at 12 p.m.
