Vernon, NY – Ramborain (Josh Kinney) captures the featured $7,500 trot at Vernon Downs on Friday (June 6).
Century Invader (Leon Bailey) went to the front and led to the quarter in :26.2. He used a :28.3 second quarter to be first to the half in :55.0. Emotions Riches (Chris Long) came first-up to challenge going around the final turn and was first to three-quarters in 1:24.2.
As they made the turn for home second place finisher Emotions Riches looked poised to win but Ramborain ($7.50) had other ideas. He came flying down the stretch to win in a lifetime best of 1:55.0. Pay Me Tonight (Doug Maura) finished third.
Ramborain is a 4-year-old gelding by Crazy Wow. He is trained by Dan Daley for owners Ann-Mari Daley, Margerot Waterbury, Todd Van Alstine, and JLRL LLC. It was his third win this season. He now has nine career victories.
Jimmy Whittemore had a driving grand slam. He was first with So Delicious, Little Instigator, Match My Miracle, and O”er The Ramparts. Leon Bailey had a driving triple.
