Harrington, DE — Ginger Tree Farm, M. Gregory Gehman and Neal Oksenberg’s Corporate Rrraider used a powerful late rally to score a 1:55 win over a sloppy track in Harrington Raceway’s featured $18,500 Open Pace on Monday.

Driven by Tim Curtin, the six-year-old Keystone Raider gelding earned his second win of the year as he closes in on $500,000 in lifetime earnings.

Doctor Rich (Eddie Davis) and Crystal Art (Travis Bowman) slugged it out early in a speed duel that saw a highly contested half-mile in :56 on the off track. The Sam Beegle-trained Corporate Rrraider launched his second over attack with driver Tim Curtin and brushed to the front on the backstretch and pulled away by two lengths. Kilowatt (Hal Belote) was second best with Black Cat Bone (Jim Morand) third.

Doc and Me Inc. and Marie Robinson’s Monsoon Hall sprung a 7-1 victory in the $16,500 Delaware Special. Trained by Chuck Crissman, Jr., he pushed his lifetime bankroll to $819,000.

Driver Bret Brittingham won his 1,500th lifetime race with Sunburnt Fella A in the 15th race.

Racing continues Tuesday with a 5:30 p.m. post time.
