Harrington, DE — Gates Mills Stable and Richard Paltani’s Western Sam won his third consecutive race at Harrington Raceway on Sunday in 1:56.3. Driver/trainer Brad Hanners left from post seven with the four-year-old Nobleland Sam gelding and settled fourth before swooping by the leaders up the backstretch for a two length triumph over Aintlifesweet and Armbro Barrymore. He paid $4.60 to win. The 15 race program was a chalk players delight as nine of the races were won by favorites. Racing continues Monday with a 5:30 p.m. post time.
