Andrew Adamczyk managed to grab the lead from the outermost post with Stick With Me Kid and strolled down the road to a 1:59 win in the $10,274 North American Amateur Drivers Association (NAADA) Trot at Monticello Raceway on Wednesday afternoon, July 10.
Leaving from post seven, Adamczyk sent Stick With Me Kid for the front, but his charge briefly lost stride at the start. Adamczyk collected his trotter and marched forward once flat to grab control from Raceace (Alan Schwartz) through a :28.4 first quarter. Stick With Me Kid strode through the middle sectionals of :59.4 and 1:29.2 enduring little challenge while widening his lead. Raceace only gave chase back in second as Stick With Me Kid pulled away to a 4-1/2-length win with Psalmsfortysixfive (Scott Keppler) closing for third, beaten 11 lengths, and Making Sparks (Tony Ciuffetelli) settling for fourth.
Nick Devita trains Stick With Me Kid, a 10-year-old gelding by Deweycheatumnhowe, for owner J M F Racing LLC. He paid $3 to win.
NAADA action will shift to Yonkers Raceway next Thursday, July 18 for the seventh leg of the club’s Summer Series. First-race post time at Yonkers Raceway is 7 p.m. (EDT).
