Devaux wins three at Saratoga

Saratoga Springs, NY — Driver Jimmy Devaux picked up right where he left off on Sunday afternoon when he piloted three winners on Thursday’s (Oct. 25) card at Saratoga Casino Hotel.

Devaux, who won five races on Sunday’s matinee, completed a Thursday hat trick in the co-feature while piloting Credit List (Credit Winner). The Dave Dewhurst-trained trotter scored in leg two of the recently concluded Jim Derue Memorial Trotting Series as he went coast-to-coast with Devaux in the sulky. In that start, Credit List sprung the upset when dismissed at odds of 10-1.

In Thursday’s $10,000 co-feature for New York sired trotters, the sophomore high-stepper was the public’s betting favorite. Backed to the tune of even money, Credit List never had an anxious moment en route to victory in 1:59.2.

Devaux, who piloted three winners on Thursday and now has eight victories in the last two race cards at the Spa, currently sits in second-place in the local driver standings and has closed the gap between he and leading reinsman Billy Dobson in recent weeks.

The other co-feature was won on Thursday by All Night Credit (Credit Winner) who bumped his career earnings to over the $100,000 mark with a victory that saw him go wire-to-wire in 2:00 for trainer Alicia Gray and driver Shawn Gray.

Live racing continues on Friday evening at Saratoga with a 6:45 p.m. first post.
