Colts by two-time
Prix D’Amerique winner Ready Cash ranked 1-2 this week, KYSS champion now
with Team Takter rallied to win his 3YO debut in Dancer division in 1:51.4,
“I couldn’t have scripted it any better,” Gingras said. “It’s his first start
of the year and I wanted to somewhat take it easy on him. It couldn’t have
worked out any better. He’s great. I think he’s ready for it. He’s going to
get next week off, I’m pretty sure, and he’s ready for the (Hambletonian).”

Won a Reynolds
division @ Big M on July 11 in 1:52 with a thunderous :26.4 rally, romped in
a Dancer division in 1:52, “He was really handy today, really relaxed, which
is good,” Zeron said. “He’s progressively getting smarter and smarter on the
track. Every start is just leading up to the Hambletonian in my eyes, so
today it was like leave, let him sit, see how he feels in the hole. I was
able to sit in longer than I thought I could because of the pace. Down the
lane, he just finished strong. He was very well within himself.”
