Frazzleberry has now won four of his last six starts, and two of his three outings since being acquired by owner Eric Prevost and trainer Darren Taneyhill, with a 1:52 triumph. The son of Art Major made two early speed moves in fractions of :27.1, :56, and 1:24.3, then came home in :27.4 to be 5-1/4 lengths clear at the wire for driver Matt Kakaley.

Hall It In, a son of Cantab Hall, entered into the care of John Butenschoen upon shipping from The Meadows and promptly made every pole a winning one in a 1:57 mile. Marcus Miller, who topped the local colony with four victories on Monday, got easy fractions, then sprinted home in :28.2 to win by a half length over potential pocket rocket By A Hoff Hanover for the partnership of War Horse Stables and Bay Pond Racing Stable.

The racing week closes out on Tuesday (Aug. 16) with a 1:30 card; on Tuesday, they will also post the scratches and driver changes for this Saturday’s (Aug. 20) $2,242,500 Sun Stakes Saturday extravaganza.
