Major Uptrend was a dominant 1:53 winner in the $16,000 Open Pace.

Heavily supported by the betting public, the 7-year-old Somebeachsomewhere gelding left from post position six and immediately made the front and never relented in a confident win over Dialamara and Sawbuck Hanover.

Owned by Crissman Inc. and Niss Allen Inc., it was the fifth win of the year for the Tim Crissman trainee, who has banked more than $533,000 in his career. Major Uptrend, a former $177,000 yearling, most recently completed a banner meet at Dover Downs, with multiple wins in the Preferred ranks.

Driver Mike Cole had three winners on the 13-race card. Morgan and Eddie Davis Jr. each had a double on the card.
