A timely win at RcR

Timely Centurion, an 8-year-old son of Western Hanover, was the sport's fastest performer on Tuesday, capturing an $8,000 winner's-over event at Rosecroft Raceway in 1:52.1. The win was one of six on the card for driver John Wagner, the leading reinsman at the five-eighths mile oval.



The win was the second of the year in six starts for Timely Centurion, who bested Sea Man by three-quarters of a length. Trained by Manley Brown Jr. and bred and owned by Howard and J. Belle Bauman, Timely Centurion has a career slate of 144-23-18-23 and earnings of $121,562. He earned his career mark of 1:52 last year over Colonial Downs' 1 1/4-mile racetrack.



Timely Centurion is out of the dam Time Slips By, who raced in Open events on the East Coast in the early 1990s. A 22-time winner of more than $136,000 for the Baumans, Time Slips By earned her mark of 1:54.3 in 1992 at the Meadowlands. Timely Centurion is a half brother to Maryland Sire Stakes winner Time For Her Hero, a 5-year-old mare who is nearing the $100,000 mark in career earnings.
