Alloveramerica breaks 15-race skein with Saratoga victory

The 6-year-old pacer Alloveramerica halted a 15-race losing streak on Tuesday when taking the featured $5,500 non-winners pace at Saratoga Gaming and Raceway in 1:55.

Guided from post five by Jim Devaux, Alloveramerica paced confidently on the lead through uncontested fractions of :27.2, :57.1, and 1:26.1, entering the stretch with 1 ½-length over a pocket-sitting Baylander (Dan Cappello Jr.) before holding off that rival to prevail by a length at the wire.

Alloveramerica returned $3.40, $2.30, and $2.10 for the victory.

Baylander brought in $2.90 and $2.10 for second, while Shark Lookin (Kim Crawford) paid $6.70 for third.

Owned by Vincent Laurenzo and trained by Colin Johnson, Alloveramerica is a 17-time winner in 90 lifetime starts, with a career bankroll of $164,252.

The victory by Alloveramerica marked the third consecutive feature-race triumph for Johnson, who captured Friday’s Open Trot in track-record time with Prime Interest, before returning on Saturday to prevail in the Filly and Mare Open Pace with Atoka Woodstock. (Saratoga)
