Lexington, KY – On Sunday (Sept. 11) Red Mile hosted two $80,000 fourth round legs of the Kentucky Championship series, two $30,000 fourth round legs of the Kentucky Commonwealth series and two $15,000 fourth round legs of the Kentucky Golden Rod series for sophomore female and male trotters and pacers. Defending Kentucky champion Double Deceiver dug down and captured his contest by a nose while Boudoir Hanover showed who was the boss in their respective divisions of the Championship series.

Double Deceiver (David Miller) rebounded from an unusual performance last week to win his sire stakes division for sophomore male pacing colts by in 1:51. Golden Wall As (Tony Hall) and Rebuff (Tim Tetrick) were second and third.

Golden Wall As grabbed the lead from the beginning of the mile and cut the first fraction of :29 until Rebuff assumed command. The son of Muscle Hill and Tetrick led the field of seven through a half of :56:1 and three-quarters in 1:23.4. Golden Wall As was waiting patiently in the pocket with Double Deceiver biding his time in third.

Double Deceiver and Golden Wall As simply passed Rebuff in the drive for the wire.
