Kathleen Kuebler bred and conditioned No More Game before sending the filly to trainer Erv Miller. Since then the daughter of CR Commando-Celebrity Charter has won three of her five starts and $71,290 in purses. In the $100,000 colt final, the public choice Collect The Brass made an untimely break on the first turn and could not return to stride in time to be a factor. Meanwhile Bob Shahan scooted to the lead with Bakermill Blake and led until the final step when Ruby Ransom got up after a stretch long chase. Brandon Givens drove the CR Commando-Dreamland's Trophy colt for Ed Maas and Nanticoke Racing Inc. to the 1:59.4 score. Bakermill Blake was second to spare with Special Command with Roger Plante along to finish third. The victory for Nanticoke Racing and driver Givens, one of his four for the night, was just a renewal of similar DSBF trotting winner's circles. This was the fourth consecutive year that the combination won a $100,000 final. (Dover Downs)
