Glidemaster 4th in qualifier

 Return Home
May 16, 2006 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Glidemaster, the colt trotter who equaled a world record of 1:55.3 in his second lifetime start last year, made his 2006 season debut in a qualifier at Mohawk Raceway this morning, finishing fourth, timed in 2:00.4.

Trainer Blair Burgess was in the bike as the son of Yankee Glide raced eighth in the nine-horse field past the half then began moving on the outside. Glidemaster closed with a :28.2 final quarter and was 13 lengths off the winner, Jestabrute, a 3-year-old Angus Hall gelding driven by Paul Macdonell who won in 1:58.1.

On Aug. 30, 2005, in his second lifetime start, Glidemaster went wire to wire over Mohawk’s seven-eighths mile track, equaling the 1:55.3 mark set by Mack Lobell Oct. 3, 1986. Chocolatier then lowered the mark to 1:54.4 Oct. 10 at Lexington. The records are for mile races over two turns.

Glidemaster finished last year with three wins and a second in five starts and earnings of $49,322 for owners Bob Burgess, Karin Olsson Burgess, Marsha Cohen and Brittany Farms.
