Elizabeth Lane, whose racing career spanned two qualifiers only, proved a quick study on Thursday at The Meadows as she went wire to wire in the $13,000 opening leg of the Chartiers Township Trot for 3-year-old fillies. The daughter of SJ's Caviar, unraced at two, began her career miserably, breaking stride repeatedly in a qualifier. But she settled down when trainer-driver Doug Snyder rigged her with hobbles, qualifying impressively in 1:59. Wearing hobbles on Thursday, she was fast and flat, scoring in 1:57.3 by 3 1/4 lengths over Olivia's Jewel. Charged Freight was third. Snyder owns Elizabeth Lane with Wayne A. Shaffer III. The final of the Chartiers Township is set for April 24. In the $20,000 Preferred Handicap Trot, Dyno Trevor was unchallenged in a soft half of :59, making him uncatchable in the back half. He triumphed for Mike Wilder in 1:55.4, 1 1/4 lengths better than Heza Challenger. Maingate Victory was third. Roy Mac Davis trains Dyno Trevor, an 8-year-old son of Conway Hall, for Brent Davis.
