With perfect fall weather and a lightning-fast track greeting the contestants at Plainridge Park on Sunday (Oct. 16), stake and track records, along with lifetime marks, were the order of the day as the third leg of the $2.56 Massachusetts Sire Stakes for 2-year-old eligibles were held. The trotting fillies were split into two $32,500 races while the remaining three divisions each went one for $65,000 apiece. The first filly trot went to Milliondollarwall (Walner-Mom's Millionaire), who claimed her third straight MASS win. Get The Picture (Jay Randall) left from pylon position and set fractions of 29, 58 3/5 and 1:27 4/5 while Milliondollarwall (Yannick Gingras) sat in the pocket waiting to pounce, and that happened at the top of the far turn. Milliondollarwall engaged Get The Picture heading into the stretch and had a hard time getting separation from her gutsy rival, but just before the wire, Milliondollarwall finally got the advantage and won by three-quarters of a length in 1:57 2/5. It was the fourth win in only five lifetime starts for the heavily-favored Milliondollarwall ($2.10), who is owned and was bred by Moni Maker Stable. Domenico Cecere trains the winner. The second group of trotting girls were bested by Laurens Hoopla (E L Titan-Tattoo You), who won her second consecutive in the MASS. Nick Graffam went right for the lead from post four with Laurens Hoopla as Pembroke Moni (Yannick Gingras), who also left, dropped into the garden spot. When the race reached the half in 56 3/5, the top two had gapped from the field with only The Wise One (Bruce Ranger) staying close. Positions remained unchanged until the seven-eighths pole where Gingras pulled Pembroke Moni and tried to overtake Laurens Hoopla. Although she gained ground with every stride, Pembroke Moni could not get past Laurens Hoopla, who hit the line on top by a neck in 1:56 3/5. Laurens Hoopla ($4.60) was bred and is owned by Ray Campbell Jr. and is trained by George Ducharme. Inter Mischief (International Moni-Blinded By Lindy) had a big day, winning the trot for colts and geldings and breaking several records in the process. Inter Mischief (Kevin Switzer Jr.) took the early lead, but yielded it to Yo Lucky Moni (Jimmy Whittemore) past the speedy 27 4/5 quarter. It was there that the favored Te Amo Lindy (Yannick Gingras) made a break, and that changed the complexion of the race. Yo Lucky Moni then backed off the half to 58 4/5 and headed up the backstretch, seemingly in complete control. However, in the far turn, Switzer tipped Inter Mischief and got his colt in gear. He got up alongside Yo Lucky Moni, and the two trotted together all the way to the wire, with Inter Mischief getting the advantage by three-quarters of a length to win in 1:55 4/5. The time was a new lifetime mark for the winner, and it also broke the MASS and Plainridge track records for 2-year-old trotting colts. It was the second stakes win for Inter Mischief ($4.80) and owners Frank Chick and Jamie Lee Sullivan, who also trains the record-setter. Inter Mischief was bred by K R Breeding. ► Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter The pacing fillies had a field of eight go to post, and Dame (Dude's The Man-Seat By The Window) exerted her muscle to take her second straight victory. Jimmy Hardy pushed Dame off the gate, but Seafood Beauty (Jay Randall), who had pylon position, played hardball and would not release the leaver. It wasn't until past the 27 second quarter that Dame took control and crossed over. Once on the point, Dame went to the half in 56 4/5 and three-quarters in 1:25 3/5 as Seafood Beauty tried to stay close. Close was not good enough, though, as Dame paced away to a 3 1/4 length lead down the stretch and won in a new lifetime-best time of 1:54 2/5. Dame ($3.00) was bred and is owned by Stephen Richard. Jolene Andrews trains the winner. Finally, it was a full field of nine pacing colts and geldings that lined up, with Luke McGook getting up late for a win and a new mark. Kevin Switzer Jr. put Luke McGook on the point after a battle with Good Will Lindy (Shawn Gray) and then took the field to the quarter in 27 1/5. However, his stablemate So Rock N' Roll (Drew Monti) was out and rolling early and took the lead from him in front of the grandstand. As they headed into the second half, Rooster Bennett (Yannick Gingras) moved first-over from fourth and got within close proximity of So Rock N' Roll. Those two went at it around the last turn while Luke McGook drafted behind, waiting for an opening. That came halfway down the stretch when the pylon lane opened up as So Rock 'M Roll was fighting off Rooster Bennett. Switzer Jr. guided Luke McGook through the gap, shot to the front by one-half length at the wire, and won in 1:54 1/5. The time was a new lifetime mark for the winner and also tied the Plainridge track record for 2-year-old pacing geldings. It was the eighth win of the year for Luke McGook ($9.80), who is owned by Leighton Properties and trained by Marc Tardif. Erica Saucier bred the winner. Switzer Jr. was the leading driver on Sunday, winning three races during the afternoon. Live racing resumes at Plainridge Park at 2 p.m. on Monday afternoon (Oct. 17) when the third leg of the $2.56 million Massachusetts Sire Stakes for 3-year-olds occurs. --press release (Standardbred Owners of Massachusetts)--
