Millionaire Psilvuheartbreaker ended a seasonal schneid Saturday night, lasting on the lead to win Yonkers Raceway’s $48,000 Open Handicap Pace. After disposing of a stubborn, first-up Wholly Louy (Stephane Bouchard), "Heartbreaker" needed the wire. He was able to get it at a very convenient time, holding off Forensic Z Tam by a head in 1:52.2. Eagle Real One (Cat Manzi), Jeremy's Successor (Ryan Anderson) and Real Nice (Jason Bartlett) completed the cashers. Psilvuheartbreaker, a 6-year-old Nobleland Sam gelding owned by Frank Bellino, returned $16.20 (fourth choice) for that first win in 22 seasonal starts. Despite a '09 o-fer coming in, he had earned more than $196,000. The state's glamour division makes its second downstate appearance Monday night, with Yonkers Raceway hosting the $217,252 New York Sire Stakes Bruce Hamilton Pace for 3-year-old colts and geldings. Four divisions--at $54,313 a pop--go postward (including two non-bettors beginning at 6 PM). (Yonkers)
