Published: September 22, 2009 07:36 pm EDT

Masters Sweetie sat patiently and watched Quickmaster (Dan Noble) and This Sands Hot (John Konesky III) battle through the first three-quarters of a mile and scored a two length victory over Sams Charmer (Ron Steck) in 2:00 to capture the $5,000 Signature Series Trot Final.

The four-year-old Master Lavec mare is owned and trained by Edward Birmele. With the victory, Masters Sweetie scored for the thirteenth time in 2009.

Georges Vacation (Mike McCarthy) rounded out the trifecta and This Sands Hot faded to fourth.

Also in action on Tuesday were two divisions of the two–year-old trotting filly, three-year-old pacing filly and two-year-old colt pace.

In the freshman filly trot, CC Dancer and Greg Bateson took the first and fastest division in 2:03. Hat and Dan Noble took the second $5,925 division in 2:03.3 over I Look Dynamic (Don Pfister).

Lavish Liz and Sam “Chip” Noble remained hot as they took the first division of the sophomore filly pace in 1:54.1. Lavish Liz won by 25 lengths and has now finished in the top three in all 16 of her seasonal starts. Dan Noble completed the “Noble Family Double” has he guided Cruise On By to victory in the second division in 1:58.

The final New Century Series events were for freshmen colt pacers. Bongo went a gutsy wire-to-wire mile to score in 1:55.3 over Look Yankee (Russell Swartz) in the first division. Matt Kakaley guided the son of Dawn Ofa New Day for Daniel Stone of Lebanon, OH and Jerry Shaffer of Waynesville, OH.

In the second $6,075 division, Trev Adams Attack wore down the pacesetting Feel The Love (Sam Noble III) to score in 1:57.3. Matt Kakaley drove the son of On The Attack.
