Ron Pierce, coming off a ‘four-win slam’ on Thursday, made it six winning drives during Sunday's 15 races at Dover Downs.

Pierce’s six winners were Sucha Bad Girl in the second, Devils Ivy in the fourth, Reindance Ray in the fifth, Go Big Spinder in race 10, Nuts And Jolts in the 12th and Three Ten in the 14th race.

Maximum Terror won the first part of the co-featured $9,500 3,4&5-Year-Old paces when Ben Stafford Jr. wore down Pierce driving Bestofthebunch in 1:54.1. The four-year-old gelding by Western Terror-HTF Cocoa insured his victory in the final strides for his first win of the year. TK Kilowatt Sam (George Dennis) finished third.

In the second division, Ross Wolfenden drove JJ Nitro, an altered son of N Xample-Farline Hanover, into daylight in the passing lane and came on for a victory. On The Horizon (Vic Kirby) and Leyden (Allan Davis) were second and third respectively.

Mike Rossi, who has specialized with longshot wins all meet, guided 49-1 shot Twincreeks Indy to victory on the March 9 card. Twincreeks Indy charged down the lane to overtake 8-5 favourite Arpeggio Hanover (Allan Davis) in deep stretch to notch his first win of 2014 for owner/trainer Bob Mundell. Brisk Clipper (Rodger Plante) thundered home third.

Tony Morgan, Wolfenden, Rossi and breeder/owner/trainer Virginal Louthan had two wins each.

JK Letitgo puts a four-race win streak on the line meeting Jeremes Sweetheart and Alexachase in the $20,000 Mares Open, the Monday feature race.
