Princetonian wins CI Smith Memorial

Return Home
October 19, 2007 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Princetonian commanded the lead at every call and drew off to a 6 1/4-length victory in the $100,000 Charles I Smith Memorial Trot Friday afternoon at Freehold Raceway. The Dream Vacation gelding trotted the mile in 1:57 flat, a stakes record, on a track rated "sloppy."

 
Hope Reins Supreme, also a son of Dream Vacation, was second and it was 9 1/4 lengths back to Sir Spitsbergen, who is by Self Possessed, in third.
 
The CI Smith for New Jersey-sired 3-year-old trotters is sponsored by the Standardbred Breeders & Owners Association of New Jersey.
 
Princetonian, driven by Daniel Dube, was unraced at two and has finished in the money in 16 of 19 starts this year. A $9,000 New Jersey Classic yearling purchase, he has banked $147,277 for co-owners John Lichtenberger of North Bergen, N.J., and his trainer, Hall of Famer Ray Remmen.
 
Five stallions were represented in this year’s final: Muscles Yankee (Strive for Perfect, Vitamight), Dream Vacation (Princetonian, Hope Reins Supreme), Self Possessed (Sir Spitsbergen, Bamboo Yankee), Enjoy Lavec (Enny Youngman) and Donerail (Sullivan’s Travels).
 
The stakes is named for the late Charles I. Smith, a New Jersey harness racing pioneer, founder of the New Jersey Sire Stakes program and owner of trotters. 
 
The previous stakes record at Freehold of 1:57.3 was set in 2006 by Enough Talk (by Enjoy Lavec). (SBOANJ)
