Mc Attaboy burned his way to his third straight win to start his career and posted the night’s fastest time among the two-year-old colts and gelding pacers in the W.N. Reynolds Memorial stakes races on Tuesday night

at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. Tuesday night’s Reynolds races were the culmination of Grand Circuit Week at the track.

There were seven “The Solicitor” Reynolds divisions held on Tuesday night for two-year-old colts and geldings on the pace, with purses ranging from $20,636 to $21,036. In addition, there were three divisions of the “Mary Reynolds” Reynolds races for three-year-old fillies on the trot, with purses from $23,567 to $23,967.

Mc Attaboy, trained by Steven Cook and driven by Tim Tetrick, followed up wins at Chester in a maiden race and at The Meadows in the Stallion Series with his Reynolds win on Tuesday night by two lengths. He paced the mile in 1:53:1 in the night’s very first division, which ended up holding as the fastest time among the freshman pacers.

Other The Solicitor winners on Tuesday night include: Mattacardle (Brett Miller, Rich Gillock) in 1:53:4; Star Recruit (Mike Wilder, Bruce Riegle) in 1:53:3; Easy Again (Montrell Teague, George Teague, Jr.) in 1:53:3; Ethan Hanover (Tetrick, Mark Lancaster) in 1:53:4; Terryang Fra (Dave Palone, Steve Elliott) in 1:54:2; and Station Threeohsix (Tetrick, Ray Schnittker) in 1:53:4.
