Mark Pezzarello got away fourth Roman Rocks while Just Crowned laid down fractions of :29.2 and :59.2 before coming under pressure from Slots Of Fun.

Roman Rocks dug in down the lane and used a :28.3 final frame to win by a neck over Slots Of Fun and race favourite Just Crowned.

Marty Adler of Amherstburg, ON owns and trains the seven-year-old son of No Pan Intended-Janie Mcpockets, who improved his 2012 record to 3-3-3 in 14 starts this season. The 10-time winner is just shy of $150,000 in lifetime earnings.
