Wind Blown knocks down fourth straight field

Wind Blown dominated his Truro Raceway rivals for the fourth consecutive week in Sunday’s feature harness racing pace to remain undefeated in 2021.

Four of five opponents passed Wind Blown into the first turn, but driver and trainer Bernard McCallum activated the gelding before completing the opening quarter mile in :27.4. Wind Blown struck the front after a swift brush, knifed out :56.4 and 1:25.4 middle panels, and left his foes behind in the final quarter for a five-length romp in 1:53.2. Ashestodiamonds (Darren Crowe) held second over third-place finisher American Risk (Todd Trites) by a miniscule margin.
