Can Do was a winner in a track record time of 1:55.

Driven by co-owner/trainer Kirby, the Cantab Hall gelding sat most of the mile behind favorite and pacesetter Muscleaneous, who recently broke a track record of his own for older trotting stallions on June 5. Muscelaneous led throughout before Can Do awaited his turn in the stretch and breezed by in mid-stretch for a one length win.

The former mark was set last season by Cashahallic (1:55.2). Can Do registered his third win in 2013.

In the featured $19,000 Open Trot, David Miller’s Cash On Delivery ($5.80, Vince Copeland) notched his fifth win of the year. Trained by his driver, the 5-year-old Cash Hall gelding outkicked He’s Spooky, who finished second, and third place finisher Traverse Seelster late for a 1:56 win.

Allan Davis had a driving triple on the program.
