Kolaczynski won three races on the card, winning with all three horses he sent out.

Two of his winners were driven by Jeff Dauplaise, who won race four with Perfect Bet, then took race five with Kerrin Joseph A. In both races, Dauplaise put his drive on the lead and fended off all challengers to win in a close finish.

Later in the day, Kolaczynski completed the hat trick in race nine, sending out Soho Chelsea A to victory with driver Pat Lachance.

Aimee Scheid owns all three winners.

Beckwith, who celebrated his 19th birthday on Saturday, pulled off upsets in two races. He won race six in exciting fashion, as 51-1 Rockin Indy came rolling from the back of the pack to get up and win by a head for the biggest upset at Freehold so far in 2022. Izzy Estrada is the winning owner and trainer.
