Cant Stop Lou is unstoppable in freshman colt and gelding pace

The son of Sweet Lou and Can’t Stop Me Now (Josert Fonseca) left from post seven in the field of seven. Already carried wide, the colt’s momentum was seriously impacted after Base Stealer (Logan Loney) broke shortly before the half-mile marker.

Cant Stop Lou gathered himself and strode to the wire with a :27.4 last quarter-mile. Seven Out (Miller) was second and Lootable (John MacDonald) were third.

Owned by Nancy Takter & Jaf Racing, Rojan Stables, R A W Equine and Jeffrey Bell, Cant Stop Lou is trained by Takter. He was bred by Diamond Creek Farm. His record now stands at two-for-two. Can’t Stop Lou paid $5.60 to win.

Hungry For Love satisfies her appetite in 2-year-old filly pace

Leaving from post position 10 in the field of 10, the race favorite settled in fifth after leaving the gate, but assumed command after the first quarter-mile. Prideful (Andy Miller) was the public’s second selection and raced accordingly as the filly started in second and remained there until the wire. My Nay Nay (Devon Tharps) closed mildly to be third.

Owned by Thomas and Scott Dillon, Hungry For Love is trained by Ron Burke.

Yo Lucky Moni, Over And Back break their maidens in 2-year-old male trots

The gelded son of International Moni-Unbelindyble began to trot his mile from post position three and remained in that position until the half-mile marker. Overkill Hall (Dewayne Minor) made the race interesting but settled for second. Longtrail (Dunn) was third.

Sent off as the second choice in the field of seven, Yo Lucky Moni paid $6.80. He now sports a record of 3-1-1-1.

Over And Back (Miller) won the second division for his age, sex and gait by a head in 1:58. The son of Trixton-Chim Swift took the lead right at the start, but relinquished after the first quarter, content to sit in the garden seat until the stretch drive. When given his cue, Over And Back battled heavy favorite Whole Nother (Dunn) to the wire. Make A Wish Deo (Todd Warren) was third.

Trained by Chris Beaver, who also co-owns the gelding with Aaron Merriman, Renee Bercury and Johanna Beaver, Over And Back collected his first win in his second start.
