Training Triple For Rankin At Hiawatha

Published: May 26, 2011 10:10 pm EDT

Veteran horseman Donnie Rankin, Jr. has a good night at the office on Thursday evening thanks to the training and driving triple he manufactured at Hiawatha Horse Park

.

Rankin, who has more than 1,500 training wins and purse earnings in excess of $8-million over the course of his career, got the ball rolling with Favorite Fantasy in Race 3. The Camluck filly, who he co-owns with Percy Elkins, stopped the teletimer in 1:59.4.

Rankin and Elkins also share ownership on Plumbing Princess, who got up to win by three-quarters of a length in Race 6. The eight-year-old daughter of Astreos, who was sent off as the 4-5 favourite, halted the clock in 1:58.1. A win in Race 10 with Victoire, who is owned solely by Elkins, capped off Rankin’s hat trick. The seven-year-old son of Victorys Force got the job done in 2:04.
