Toes In The Water and Moved Bythe Spirit make it three in a row in Buckeye Stallion Series

Grove City, OH — The Buckeye Stallion Series took center stage at the Champaign County Fairgrounds in Urbana, Ohio, on Tuesday (Aug. 10) with 14 races on the card.

Two-year-old filly trotter Toes In The Water made it three-for-three in the series as Ryan Stahl rallied the daughter of Long Tom down the stretch to win by a half-length for trainer Tye Loy. Toes In The Water is perfect in her four lifetime starts.

Moved Bythe Spirt also remained perfect in the Buckeye Stallion Series. The Timothy Lane trainee was parked two wide, 1-3/4 lengths back at the three-quarter pole, before Jeremey Smith hustled the son of Western Vintage to the lead at the top of the stretch and won by a length. Moved Bythe Spirit has three wins and a pair of seconds in five starts this year.

The other 12 BSS races all had first-time winners in the series.

Oftom (Long Tom), Purple Aura (Creatine), and Miss Cowboy Star (Long Tom) were winners in the filly trot.

The 2-year-old colt trot saw Stay Tuned (What The Hill), Wishing Max (Wishing Stone), Rose Run Xalted (Triumphant Caviar), and A Handsome Face (Dejarmbro) win for the first time in the Buckeye Stallion Series.

The Mad King (Fear The Dragon), Western Depth (Western Vintage), Gratified (Domethatagain), Xenia (Racing Hill), and Self Made (Fear The Dragon) collected their first wins in the 2-year-old colt pace.

Buckeye Stallion Series action continues Wednesday night (Aug. 11) at Eldorado Scioto Downs for the third leg of the 2-year-old filly pace. First race post time is 6:15 p.m.
