Weidman/Randall win pair at Saratoga
Saratoga Springs, NY — Trainer Jody Weidman and driver Jay Randall teamed up for a pair of winners on the Tuesday card at Saratoga Casino and Raceway.
The Vernon Downs-based Weidman has always done well when he has brought members of his stable to the Spa over the last several years and he tallied a trainer’s double with conditioned trotters Ozymandias (Crazed) and Bluebird Jamaican (Southwind Elian).
Ozymandias was his race’s 1-5 betting favorite as he dropped in class and had little trouble swooping the group to prevail in a seasonal best 1:58.4. Bluebird Jamaican overcame a first over journey to win a photo in 2:00.
Each of the Weidman trainee’s victories came in $4,000 conditioned trotting races.
Live racing continues on Wednesday night at Saratoga with a first post time of 7:05 p.m.
