Holland scores four at Yonkers

Brent Holland had his name above the title Thursday night, winning with four of his five Yonkers  Raceway drives on the dozen-race card.

 

After finishing fourth with a longshot in the opener, Holland rolled from second-over with favored Pilgrim's Haley ($4.50) in the $6,000, third-race pace. His next drive came four races later, a first-up winner with Bluebird Dream ($11.40) in the $8,000, seventh-race pace. The mare prevailed despite broken equipment.

 

Holland scratched out of his scheduled drive in the ninth race before sweeping the $239 late double. He closed in the passing lane Technicalybroadway ($10) in the $13,000, 11th-race trot, then deeper in the passing lane with Able Yankee ($54.50) in the $13,000, final-race pace. Both halves of the late double were trained by Paul Blumenfeld. (Yonkers)
