Wire to wire at Rosecroft

The Fraternity Pan earned a third consecutive victory in the $11,300 Winners Over pace at Rosecroft Raceway Tuesday, dominating the field with a wire-to-wire trip in 1:52.

Driven by Corey Braden, the 7-year-old son of Artsplace gained the lead immediately off the gate from post six and held strong through fractions of :27.1, :56.1 and 1:24. The Fraternity Pan topped Peyote 1 ¼ lengths. The talented stallion now has five wins on the year from 14 starts, and upped his bankroll to over $222,000 for owner Kelley Rogers.

Peyote closed strongly in the stretch with a :27.2 last quarter after a five-hole trip through much of the mile. The 5-year-old Cambest horse was successful off of a jump up in class, and paced the mile in 1:52.1 with Todd Schadel in the bike. Gerald Kelly trains Peyote for owner Judy Davis.

Mr. Thinker finished third for owner Tom Cooke. The talented 6-year-old Glowing Tribute horse is very consistent in this class; he has been on the board nine times from 13 starts this year. Trained by Roger Hans, Mr. Thinker raced through a pocket trip behind The Fraternity Pan with Donnie Russell at his lines.
