Carter continues Rosecroft youth movement

Ft. Washington, MD — Eighteen-year-old William Carter won four times on the Tuesday night (Feb. 7) Rosecroft card, continuing the oval’s reputation for launching the career of young drivers.

Rosecroft has been a place that has given experience to solid young drivers like Luke Hanners, Austin Hanners, Trae Porter, Declan Donoway, Bryson Dunning, and Cole Olsen. They have all started at Rosecroft before they could legally drink an adult beverage and have won races over the past couple of seasons.

Carter scored with A Lady Sizzling in the Diane Stevenson Memorial for trainer Thomas Armour to highlight his four wins.

Jacob Roglitz, 22, won his first ever race at Rosecroft, winning the finale with the late closing mare American Sombrero for owner-trainer Brian Tomlinson.

Jonathan Roberts, the defending dash champion at Rosecroft, took the $13,000 featured trot as Judge Bob nailed the tough Stacey McLenaghan entry of Crossfit Mouse and Creekside Pete with a brilliantly timed move from third entering the stretch. It was the 39th career win for the homebred of trainer Megan Roberts and Graham Grace Stables and was one of two wins for Roberts on the card.

Jonathan Ahle won twice, while Adrian Wisher Jr. and Paul Kramer won divisions of the Mid-Atlantic Amateur Drivers Club.
