In the other $74,500 flight Moonshot S (Scott Zeron) led the way early, but Gingras swung Civilian Drone, the 4-5 favorite, to the outside before the 28.3 quarter and took charge on the second turn. Civilian Drone continued to show the way to the 59 second half and the 1:28.3 three-quarters, but Gangsta Talk (Svanstedt) was out and moving first-over from third at that latter station.
Civilian Drone managed to keep the top spot around the final bend and into the lane, but Gangsta Talk continued to make headway to the outside and forged his way by Civilian Drone late in the mile to prevail by half a length in 1:58.1. Civilian Drone had to settle for second and Moonshot S wound up third.
Svanstedt also trains and co-owns Gangsta Talk with partners Stable Why Not, Little E LLC. and Jorgen Sparredal Inc. Gangsta Talk, bred by Ab Svensk Reklamfinans, has a summary of 2-1-0 from three appearances, has earned $89,275 and paid $7.80 to win as the 5-2 second choice. He was atop a $16 exacta and a $47.20 trifecta.
