Not Demott sets world mark

 Return Home
May 24, 2005 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Not Demott set a world record for a seven-eighths mile race Monday night at Woodbine, pacing the distance in 1:39.1, two seconds quicker than the previous mark. Steve Condren drove the 7-year-old son of Beach Towel to the come-from-behind victory, overcoming first quarter and half fractions of :27.1 and :55, respectively.



Ima Noble Son and driver D. R. Ackerman held the previous world mark, set at Hoosier Park in 1997. Ironically, the Michigan-based Ackerman was at Woodbine Monday night and directed Erotica to a victory in the Ontario Sire Stakes Gold final the race immediately after the seven-eighths mile contest.



"That was quite a few years ago," Ackerman told the Woodbine publicity department afterward. "I didn't think it would last forever because I didn't even know I had it."
