Upset in Sr. Trendsetter

 Return Home
March 06, 2006 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Austin's Best pulled off a shocker in the Senior Trendsetter final at the Meadowlands Sunday afternoon, capturing the $72,000 contest at odds of 57-1. With Yannick Gingras driving, Austin's Best covered the mile in 1:51.4, rewarding his backers with a $117.80 payoff.



Interestingly, Austin's Best finished second as the even-money favorite in his division of the opening round of the Senior Trendsetter, then won at odds of 4-1 in last week's second leg. This time around the Bruce Saunders trainee was obviously overlooked after drawing the outside post 10.



Austin's Best was parked to the half in :55.4 and remained wide nearly the whole mile. He finally saw the rail in deep stretch, tucking behind the leader Cut Loose Hanover. As Cut Loose Hanover began drifting out, Austin's Best closed quickly up the pylons to best him by 1 1/4 lengths. It was 3 1/4 lengths back to Marti's Arti in third.



Austin's Best, a 4-year-old Cambest gelding, notched his fourth win in seven starts this season for owner Cary Potkin.
