Plainville, MA — After just winning the featured pace at Plainridge Park last week, Mansome bounced right back into the winner’s circle after taking another $25,000 featured pace at The Ridge on Monday afternoon (Nov.7).

Kevin Switzer Jr. put Mansome on the point and led the race from start to finish. With his right foes strung out behind him, Mansome cut quarters of :26.2, :55 and 1:23 with only a mild bid from stablemate Bag Pipe Major (Pat Curtain) at three-quarters. Turning for home, Keystone Dakota, who had been sitting the pocket the entire trip, had no answers in the lane as Mansome reels off a 1-3/4 length win in 1:52.2.

Mansome ($9.40) got his seventh win of the year for owners Bruce Weinstein and Elisha Lafreniere, who also trains the winner.

Switzer and Lafreniere teamed up to win a total of three races on Monday, adding Tobin’s Edge (1:54.3, $5.20) and Franco Tristan N (1:53.2, $4.60) during the card.

The secondary feature came next and Level Up took it up a level and blew up the tote board at 47-1.

Nick Graffam got away last from post seven while Treacherous Tom (Bruce Ranger) was commander of fractions. Graffam tipped Level Up before the half behind Wyatt J (Jay Randall) and followed that cover up the backside before moving into second at three-quarters. Now only one-half length off the leader, Level Up out-strode Treacherous Tom down the lane and won by one-half length in 1:53.3.

Sent off the favorite two out of his last three starts, Level Up was let go long this day and returned $97.00 for the win. Level Up is owned by the Seafood Delight Stable and is trained by Nick Vamvilis.

Driver Jay Randall had a natural hat trick in races five, six and seven with Roll With Dom (1:52.2, $3.20), Bluebird Goldwyn (1:53.4, $4.40) and Always A Miki (1:54, $6.40).
