San Pail collared Arch Madness in deep stretch to win the Nat Ray Invitational in 1:50.4 Saturday at Meadowlands.

Driven by Randy Waples, San Pail was sent off at 2-1. Arch Madness was the even-money choice.

Winning Mister went to the front from post nine and led to the quarter, reached in :27. He remained on top as the field hit the half in :55.1, but Arch Madness was on the move first over to take the lead before the field reached the final turn and the three-quarter marker of 1:23.1.

Arch Madness remained in front at the top of the stretch, followed by Lucky Jim and San Pail. San Pail moved down the stretch to win by 1-1/4 lengths.

Rod Hughes trains and co-owns San Pail with breeder Glenn Van Camp. He is a 7-year-old gelded son of San Pellegrino who has earned more than $2.35 million lifetime.

�He brings a tear to my eye,� Waples said. �It�s been an honor to sit behind him and an honor to see how he�s progressed through his life. It�s been a bigger honor to work for Rodney and Mr. Van Camp. Rod has done such a tremendous job with this horse. He always wants to push the credit onto somebody else, but he�s with him seven days a week, 365 days a year. I�m there once a week as a warm body.�

San Pail, the three-time Maple Leaf Trot winner, has won nine of 11 races this year. He has won 44 times in his career.

�We thought if everything looked good after the Maple Leaf Trot we�d come down here and let them know how good this horse is,� Hughes said. �We didn�t travel last year, and that was my decision. This year, it was my decision to come and here we are. We�re just showing you that this horse is legit.�
