Jim Morand, who got a late driver assignment, took I Ain't No Fool right to the front and led at all stations, en route to a convincing 1:51.1 victory in the $26,000 Open Handicap Pace Monday at Dover Downs.

Brian Sears moved race favorite Art Director to the outside after the half and took a shot at the leader at the three quarters but could not get there. In the stretch Cool Cal closed well for Tony Morgan to take second in front of Art Director. The victory was the fourth of the meet for The Panderosa-Fool That I Am gelding owned by Tom Lazzaro and Harness The Power.

In the first of two $22,000 winners-over paces, Benns Shotgun had a perfect seat sitting second until reaching the passing lane and then Eric Goodell rolled down the "Dover Driveway" to notch a 1:54 victory. Fields Of Honour A (Sears) was runner-up. Kamwood Warrior N (Eddie Davis Jr.) took show honors. Merle LaFountaine and Edith McMullen own the Hawaiian Cowboy-Bolero gelding, now a winner of three of his last four.

The other $22,000 division went to Three Point Acres' Western Hot Shot, Ron Pierce's second of three winners. The Western Hanover-Hot Shot Michelle gelding won for the fourth time in his last five outings scoring a 1:52,1 victory. Wynnfield Flash (Goodell) finished second in front of Thin Blue Line (Jon Roberts).

In one of two $18,000 male paces, Bob Davidson's 6-1 Bucktown Bad Boy and Corey Callahan came through with a 1:53.3 victory. An altered son of Badlands Hanover-Kehms Scooter, Bucktown Badboy was followed home by First Royal N (Davis) and favorite Next Flight (Morand), second and third, respectively.

Bob Messick's Menno Boy took a long journey outside for Sears and still outkicked leader Brian P (Brandon Givens) in deep stretch to record a 1:53.2 win in the second $18,000 male pace. Fast finishing Lightningjacksback (Tim Curtin) also edged Brian P for second in a tight four-horse photo. (Dover Downs)
