Ft. Washington, MD — Pride Of Windswept capped off an exciting 2-year-old season as she won the $45,000 Charlie Keller Memorial Maryland Sire Stakes final for 2-year-old trotting fillies in a record setting 1:56.4 on Sunday (Nov. 8) at Rosecroft Raceway.

The homebred of owners John and Sarah Swart, Pride Of Windswept swept all six Maryland Sires Stakes events in 2020 and also dominated a Virginia Breeders event as well. She lost her first career start in a conditioned event at Ocean Downs and has now won seven straight.

Driver Corey Callahan popped the pocket down the backside and drew off to 14 length victory for trainer Shaun Callahan and became the third Charlie De Vie offspring to put her name in the Sires Stakes record books. Call Me Keeper (Jonathan Roberts) was second and Lookie Lookie (John Wagner) was third.

In the $45,000 Earl Wagner Memorial for 2-year-old male pacers, Real Made finally made it through a race without making a break and the talented but frustrating son of Rusty’s For Real rallied to knock off pocket sitting KO Master (Mark Gray) and pacesetting Harvey’s All In (John Wagner) in 1:54.4. It was the first career win for the homebred of owner Dale Hall Jr. Allan Davis was in the bike and the gelding is trained by Brian Wright. In all five of his previous starts he had made a break, but in two of the starts he found second place finishes anyway.

Wowie Zowie was a placed winner in the $45,000 Wayne Smullin Memorial for 2-year old filly pacers as she was pacing past pacesetter Madisonsallin who ran out and brushed the wheel of Wowie Zowie, knocking her briefly off full stride. It was enough for Madisonsallin to regain the lead under the wire but was an obvious candidate for disqualification.

Driver Russell Foster also owns the Cam’s Rocket filly that is trained by his wife, Megan. She is now six for eight on the year and rebounded from her first off the board appearance in a preliminary last week and has seasonal earnings of $59,925.

It was the first of three wins on the betting card for Foster who won with Toms Tarzan for Ron Short and Jeff Beauchamp, giving Wright his second training win of the night and Skywaybrenlinsfib for John and Lisa Vickers.

Jared Moyer and Trents A Lock won the $45,000 Ralph Hayward Memorial for freshman male trotters in 2:01.1. The anticipated showdown with his rival Funnyfunnyriddle did not materialize as the latter had to scratch due to sickness. Moyer calmly guided the altered son of Lockkeeper home past Kaaching Kaaching (John Wagner) and Sunshineonmyshlder (Justin Vincent).

The win put his seasonal bankroll at $82,650 and the horse named after Moyer’s son Trent, is now five for nine on the year and has two Maryland Sires Stakes and a Virginia Breeders Fund win to his credit. Arlene Cameron conditions the horse for owner Pamela Wagner.

Rocktavious won the $12,000 Maryland Open as Luke Hanners pocketed up behind pacesetter Admiral Ballsy (Jonathan Roberts) who set fractions of :25.4, :52.4, and 1:20.4 before the closers came calling.

Dirt On My Boots (Roger Plante Jr.) took a short lead in the stretch before Hanners got clearance and stormed by for a 1-1/2 length victory. Mittnite Delight (Eddie Davis Jr.) won a super tight photo over Dirt On My Boots for the place cash at 42-1.

It was the second straight Open win, and 36th career win, for Rocktavious and a lifetime best 1:50.1 for owner Bib Roberts and trainer Megan Roberts.

It was Hanners’ second win of the night as he pulled off a 12-1 upset in race nine with Hide The Cheddar for Carolin Oglesby and trainer Clyde Oglesby Jr.

Allan Davis picked up two wins on the betting card with Maurice for Green Valley Training and trainer Thomas Armour and Talking Blues for the Twin Ponds Stable and trainer John Hollingsworth who also posted a double. His second win came with Johnny Crites Jr.’s Homstretch Wes, an in-hand winner for Jonathan Roberts.

Jason Thompson had a driving double as Taragon took a claiming win for Brian Tomlinson and Jack Quick stormed home to defeat some talented foes in Hickory Aloha (Roger Plante Jr.) and Cash Is King (Sean Bier).

Cameron had three training wins in the betting card. In addition to the Sires Stakes win, Scott Woogen scored with his own K J Michael and Wagner got up in the nick of time with Officer Wholihan.
