Pompano Beach, FL — Amateur action continued on Sunday (Feb. 6) and Monday (Feb. 7) at Pompano Park as the Florida Amateur Driving Club presented three events with drivers Dein Spriggs and Kelly “Sky” Walker guiding the winners.

Spriggs kicked off the festivities on Sunday night by guiding Leopold Sawyers’ Lucky Sevens to a 1:58.1 win as Spriggs edged closer to a milestone 500th career win. The 5-year-old gelding by Chapter Seven got picture perfect handling in the garden spot much of the way before a :29.4 final panel sealed the issue over the leading Keystone Orion (Gary Barbere) with Show Me The Magic (John Campagnuolo) third.

The win was the second straight for Lucky Sevens and 12th lifetime, vaulting his earnings to $69,399. As the 3-10 favorite, the winner paid $2.60 to his multitude of faithful.

“Sky” Walker joined the party in the second FADC event by guiding his own Absolut Uncertenty to a wire-to-wire win in 1:58. The 7-year-old Muscle Mass gelding glided through panels of :29.3, :59.2 and 1:29.3 before a :28.2 blitz home just held off the surging Steel Reserve (Don Cromer) by a head. A Royal Line (Steve Oldford) finished third.

Absolut Uncertenty, enjoying a slight class dip this night, paid $5.60 to win in earning his 15th lifetime win, sending his career bankroll to $110,209.

On Monday night, Spriggs completed a grand slam with his own Uva Hanover as this 11-year-old won his fourth straight to remain undefeated this semester. The son of Cantab Hall began his streak on Jan. 9 and continued his winning ways on Jan. 17 and 24 before completing the grand slam on Monday.

Trained by Allen Saul, Uva Hanover lifted his lifetime earnings to $613,051 on the strength of 35 lifetime wins and moved Spriggs to within 11 wins of 500 lifetime.

Though he was in the same class as his last pair of wins and had the rail post position, Uva Hanover was relegated to third choice in the betting at 4-1 and paid $10.00 to win.

The FADC, which has donated more than $220,000 to charitable causes since its inception on the generosity of its member drivers donating their driving earnings to these causes, held a paddock party for the horsemen on Monday night, treating them to a full meal consisting of steakburgers, all the trimmings and beverages. More than 100 attendees enjoyed the generosity of the Florida Amateur Driving Club.

The FADC is getting set for its annual Pro-Am event which is scheduled for Feb. 14 featuring David Miller and Tim Tetrick in team competition benefitting charities.
