by Pete Medhurst, for Rosecroft Raceway

Ft. Washington, MD — Trainer/driver Brian Burton notched a triple on the opening night of the Fall meet at Rosecroft Raceway Sunday night (Oct. 1).

All three wins came from his barn as Breadcrumb Income turned the tables on Westsluckycam with a front running score in 1:52.2. Leaving from post three, Burton hustled the Nuclear Breeze offspring right to the top in the mares winners over, and cut fractions of :26.2, :55.1, and 1:23 and held off the first over favorite. Donna’s Beach was third.

In the winners over for the males, White Rolls held off 32-1 shot Sword Of The Spirit and favorite Hide Me Away in an exciting three horse photo in 1:53.2 for Jonathan Roberts.

Roberts, Art Stafford Jr. and Russell Foster had driving doubles; trainer Trevor Stafford had a pair of wins as well.

Live racing resumes Saturday night at 6:40 p.m.
