Freehold, NJ – Aftergettng away softly from the four-hole with Allindotime, John Calabrese followed cover to the half and then moved his trotter three deep up the backside and took command before cruising to an oh-so-easy six-length triumph in 1:59 in the $9,000 American Harness Drivers Club trot Saturday (Sept. 17) at Freehold Raceway.

Sent off as the 4-5 favorite Allindotime, paid $3.60 for the win.

When the starter turned the field loose, Mark Schullstrom sent Inukchuk Chuck to the front and they had command by the quarter in :28.3 and still had a length lead over a parked-out Foxy Trotin Stick and driver Dave Offenberg when they zipped by the half in :58.4.

But when they headed for the three quarters, Calabrese, who was traveling second over, went three deep and took command and opened up a five-length lead then cruised home a six-length winner. Bob Hechkoff and Warrior Way followed Calabrese’s move and they trotted around the early leaders and rallied for a second-place finish. Third place went to Dark Pool who was driven by Tony Beltrami.

The race winner, a 7-year-old Andover Hall gelding, is owned by Alma Iafelice.
