Saratoga Springs, NY — Following a Tuesday card that saw him pilot five winners, Brett Beckwith eclipsed that mark with seven driving wins on Wednesday afternoon (Feb. 19) at Saratoga Casino Hotel.
Beckwith, the Dan Patch Rising Star Award winner in 2024, sat behind the Jaymes McAssey-trained Legal Attack, who made his local debut in the $9,500 co-featured pace for colts and geldings. Bet down to 2-5 favoritism, the 4-year-old son of Bettor’s Delight wasted little time moving out to the lead and carved out the fractions throughout the mile en route to a 1:55.3 score.
That victory was the fourth on the day for Beckwith, whose afternoon ended with wins in both halves of the late double as he piloted Captain Tell and Swiss Cotton to victory for his mother, trainer Melissa Beckwith.
Live racing resumes on Sunday afternoon (Feb. 23); first post is 12 noon.
