Obrigado successfully out-duelled Resolve to defend his title in the $193,000 Crawford Farms Open Trot while top trotting mare Hannelore Hanover surpassed the million-dollar mark in career earnings with a a strong victory in the co-featured $170,000 Muscle Hill on Friday night (August 26) at Vernon Downs.
Just prior to the Crawford, Hannelore Hanover added the Muscle Hill to her impressive stakes resume that includes victories in the Miami Valley Distaff, Armbro Flight, Miss Versatility Series, Hambletonian Maturity and Fresh Yankee.
Driver Yannick Gingras pointed the heavy 2-5 favourite Hannelore Hanover towards the front leaving the gate from post seven and she progressed to the lead through a :27.1 first quarter, clearing Barn Doll as they headed into the backstretch. While Hannelore Hanover trotted past the half-mile mark in :57, Shake It Cerry moved underway from fifth. However, Hannelore Hanover opened up two and a half lengths en route to the 1:24.4 third quarter mark and continued to draw away from her rivals down the lane to score in 1:51.3 by nearly four lengths. Shake It Cerry overtook Barn Doll for the runner-up honours.
Hannelore Hanover's winning time was a new track record for four-year-old trotting mares, shaving two-fifths of a second off Maven's mark set in the 2014 edition of the Muscle Hill.
"I was a little bit worried at the half, she looked like she was maybe on a loose line," said trainer Ron Burke. "But you can't tell with her until Yannick asks her, and as soon as he started to ask her, it pretty well looked like she was wrapped up so I was very happy."
Burke indicated Hannelore Hanover's next assignment could be against the male division.
"We might find out after watching the next division," he said prior to the Crawford Farms Open Trot. "We might supplement to race in Canada and see if she can go with them...maybe she deserves that chance. It's a favourite track for her -- she loves the seventh-eighths mile track, that's what she grew up racing the first two years on [at Hoosier Park] so it might be the move for her."
Hannelore Hanover now boasts a near-perfect 13-for-14 seasonal record with her annual income climbing over $700,000. Lifetime, the four-year-old daughter of Swan For All and High Sobriety has banked $1,007,258 for owners Burke Racing Stable LLC, Weaver Bruscemi LLC, and Frank Baldachino.
