Special T Rocks Repeats

05/22/2017 4:06 PM -

Bill Sartin and Mark Salerno's Special T Rocks ($11, Jim Morand) was a repeat winner in Monday's $17,500 Open at Harrington Raceway in 1:50.2 over a sloppy racetrack.

 Special T Rocks seized the lead from Im Supersonic A at the quarter mile in 27.4 seconds. Arque Hanover, who was parked the mile, applied pressure through the half-mile in 55.1 before yielding to three-quarters in 1:23.1. Poisonous forged a three-wide move but stalled and could not reel in Special T Rocks, who was three lengths the best. Arque Hanover was second with Poisonous third. It was the 46th career win for Special T Rocks, a 9-year-old Rocknroll Hanover gelding trained by Joe Hundertpfund Jr.

 It was also the fastest mile of the Harrington meet thus far this year.
