December 2, 2021,Dover, DE — Jack’s Legend N ($3.00) impressed in Thursday night’s (Dec. 2) $26,000 Open Handicap Pace at Dover Downs, overcoming his assigned post eight to win in 1:50.1.
Dexter Dunn aggressively left with the son of Bettor’s Delight, and the pair faced early challenges from Mack and Shoobee Doo A through a :26.4 first quarter. Jack’s Legend N finally cleared for the lead nearing the :55.3 half before facing a first-over challenge from Dorsoduro Hanover to three-quarters in 1:22.3. The two paced home together as a team into the lane, but Jack’s Legend N had something left, winning by three-quarters of a length as the 1-2 favorite. Shoobee Doo A (Corey Callahan) finished second from the pocket; Mack (Mike Cole) was a ground-saving third.
