Tetrick takes DD features

Bettor Watch Him and Wrangler Sam, both driven by Tim Tetrick, won the Sunday feature races at Dover Downs. Tetrick finished with five wins while Roger Plante and George Dennis had three each as they combined for all but four of the 15 winning drives.

Tetrick and Terry McClements' Bettor Watch Him came on with a rush from far back to overtake Scootin Scholar and Brandon Givens after building up a big lead on the backstretch and a two-length advantage at the top of the lane to win the $20,000 Delaware pace in 1:52.4. It was the 5-year-old Bettor's Delight gelding's third win of the meet. Scootin Scholar held on for second with Ima Prince Too and Tony Morgan third.

Tetrick recorded his fifth win of the night in a $15,000 Delaware pace driving Virginia Louthan's Wrangler Sam home in 1:52.1. Shotaway N (Eddie Davis Jr.) came on fast to finish second in front of front-pacing Midnight Eyre N (Morgan).

Bob Collins's Allamerican Padre scored a 1:54.2 triumph in the $14,500 male pace with Morgan at the controls. Main-A-Dieu (Kevin Sizer) led until the top of the stretch and finish second. Powerful King (Corey Callahan) came on to take show money.

Plante piloted Mossdale Gambit N to a 1:55.1 victory, his second in a row and third in his last four outings, for Barry, Debra Unger and trainer Dan Murray. Long Gone Jo (Tetrick) was second best in front of Allbecauseofthis (Morgan).

Sam's Clever Boy, owned and trained by Arty Forster Jr., was another Tetrick winning drive coming in a $10,500 male pace. The 5-year-old Nobleland Sam gelding had just enough to edge Perdition (Morgan) at the wire in 1:53.2. Corporate Rrraider (Tim Curtin) finished third.

In a $20,000 claiming pace, El Rojo Caballo put on a burst of speed late in a 1:53.4 mile to notch his second straight win and fourth of the meet for Givens who owns the Misfit 6 year old with Donna Messick and Nanticoke Racing inc.
