Freehold, NJ — Quick Deal won the $25,000 New Jersey Sire Stakes Green Acres Final for 3-year-old trotting colts and geldings on Friday (Oct. 14) at Freehold Raceway.
With Jim Meittinis driving, the gelded son of Revenue S led from start to finish, hitting the wire in 1:57.4. The fractions were :29.1, :58.2 and 1:27.4. Quick Deal also won the NJSS Green Acres final for freshman trotters in 2010.
It was an easy victory for Quick Deal, who won by 7-1/4 lengths over Aladin AS (Chocolatier). Mr Jim Dandy (Classic Photo) finished third.
With the $12,500 winner’s share of the purse, Quick Deal has now earned $33,775 in 2011 and $65,060 for his career for trainer Tyler Raymer, who co-owns the gelding with the Cappy Stable.
