Cash Me Out just made out in a three-horse photo finish to win the $15,000 Open Handicap Trot at Saratoga Raceway Sunday. He was a mild longshot at odds of 6-1,
The sixth race feature saw Cash Me Out and driver Phil Fluet battle early with Gigfy (Alek Chartrand) to take command at the opening quarter mile in :28.2.
Cash Me Out was immediately challenge first-over by Bluffinner (Jordan Derue) with Remember Titans (Jay Randall) second-over by the half mile in :59. At the three-quarters in 1:27, Bluffinner went off-stride and interfered with Remember Titans.
That left Cash Me Out nearly all alone on the lead except for Gigfy and Big Box Hanover (Larry Stalbaum) and they were coming for him. The three horses reached the wire with a blanket finish as Cash Me Out won by a neck over Big Box Hanover with Gigfy third by a neck. The mile time was 1:56.
