Not only did driver Brandon Campbell collect five driving victories—including three from his barn—on the 11-race card at Century Downs Tuesday (Sept. 1), but he also swept the pair of $9,000 features.
Campbell, after winning in the opener with Hotpieceoface ($4.80), he steered Michael Campbell trainee Mrs Suhwiggins to a 1:53.1 victory in the Fillies and Mares Open Pace. The four-year-old Custard The Dragon mare sat pocket to stablemate Scardy Cat, who set a clip of :27.2, :56.1 and 1:24. Into the stretch Mrs Suhwiggins popped pocket and slid by Scardy Cat to win by a half length with Chocolate Terror third.
Owned by J J J Stables, Mrs Suhwiggins won her third race from 14 starts this season and her 12th from 38 overall, earning $237,914. She paid $6.90 to win.
Tiempo Hanover, trained by Brandon Campbell, also popped pocket but blew clear of his competition to win the Open Pace by open lengths in 1:52.
Retros Mystery led through quick early fractions of :26.4 and :55.4 before faltering into the backside as Campbell launched Tiempo Hanover from second to the front. The six-year-old Western Ideal gelding opened four lengths on the field to three-quarters in 1:23.1 and hit the finish six-and-a-half lengths clear of 9-5 favourite Crackle N Burn with Ima Dude closing for third.
