With his first start in an overnight event in more than a month, Ron Burke trainee DW's NY Yank (Yannick Gingras) proved to be tough as nails in the harne4ss racing featured event at Harrah's Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon (Sept. 6).
It was a trot for winners over $25,000 lifetime, with a purse of $24,000.
The 6-year-old gelded son of Dilbert Hanover was able to overcome an outside post, settling into pocket position behind the speed of Lindy's Tru Grit (Andy Miller). After a quarter in :27.2 and a half of :56.2, a battle ensued for the front as Noel Daily trainee Outburst (Andrew McCarthy) moved first-over to challenge for the lead. After three-quarters (1:24.3), the leaders were vulnerable, and proved to be no match for the fresh legs of DW's NY Yank, who was able to streak up the passing lane to win by 3 lengths, stopping the clock in 1:53.4.
It was his 38th career win, pushing his lifetime earnings to over $900,000. He paid $4.80.
