Doug's Fame grows at Pocono

 Return Home
October 24, 2009 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Doug’s Fame kept his winning streak alive by moving up in class to win the featured Open Handicap pace on Friday night at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. The race carried a purse of $30,000.

Leaving as a 2-1 second choice from post position four in a field of seven, Doug’s Fame and driver Anthony Napolitano took over the lead shortly after coming around the first turn. He was challenged constantly on both the backside and in the homestretch, but he turned away all foes to win in the slop, in 1:50:3. Sky Tantrum finished one length back, in second, while Cheyenne Knight got the show.

The win was the third-straight at Pocono, all on sloppy tracks for the 4-year-old stallion sired by Apaches Fame. Dougs Fame, owned by Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi of Pennsylvania and JJK Stables and Walter Haas, Jr. of Florida, and trained by Ron Burke, won for the seventh time in 34 starts in 2009, and picked up his 12th lifetime win, pushing his career earnings past $251,000.
