No Guts No Glory no problem

Plainville, MA — No Guts No Glory has not been beaten since coming to Plainridge Park and that trend continued  on Friday (November 14) when he won his third straight race in the $17,500 conditioned pace at The Ridge.

No Guts No Glory (Mitchell Cushing) sat third as heavily favored Th Kay C Crunch (Kevin Switzer Jr.) scooted to the half in :55.3. Positions remained unchanged heading up the backstretch until Liam’s Ace (Matty Athearn) left the pocket at three-quarters and was followed by No Guts No Glory into the last turn. As they entered the stretch, Liam’s Ace overtook Th Kay C Crunch for the lead, but then No Guts No Glory ran down Liam’s Ace just before the wire to win by 1-¾ lengths in 1:53.2, which was a new lifetime mark.
