Dynamic Time flourishes stretching out around two turns

Dynamic Time relished the move to both two turns and the Louisiana-bred ranks on Monday, when he powered to a 4 1/4-length win over 1-2 favorite Smitty’s Moonshine in the $150,000 A.L. “Red” Erwin at Louisiana Downs.

The race was one of four restricted stakes on the card worth a cumulative $400,000.

Dynamic Time ($20.80) went to the lead at the start of the Erwin, which was run at about a mile on firm turf, and dueled with Prince of April through six furlongs in 1:12.49. He then shook that rival and pulled clear through the stretch to win in 1:37.06.

Tracy Hebert was aboard Dynamic Time for Vinery Stables and trainer Eric Heitzmann.

Dynamic Time was making a rare two-turn start in the Erwin, which was for 3-year-olds bred in Louisiana. He had run fifth in a $25,000 optional claiming race at five furlongs on turf when facing open company at Louisiana Downs on Aug. 27.

The filly counterpart to the Erwin was the $150,000 Elge Rasberry, and Nana Knows held off a strong late bid from Miss Sweet Dreams to win by three-quarters of a length. It was another length back in third to Tory’s Triumph.

Nana Knows ($4.60) tracked the pace in second, overtook leader Social Princess approaching the quarter pole, and went on to cover the about a mile on turf in 1:37.30.

Don Simington rode the winner for Robert Orth and Wes Hawley, who also trains Nana Knows.

She’s Yare was a stewards’ scratch in the paddock for being improperly shod, and at the time she was the even-money favorite for the Rasberry.

Heza Rainbow wins Razorback

Heza Rainbow was the lone winner heading into and coming out of the $50,000 Razorback Futurity for Arkansas-breds, a race in which he wired the field by three-quarters of a length.

Heza Rainbow ($3) covered the six furlongs for 2-year-olds in 1:12.96. One start earlier, he won a maiden special weight at Louisiana Downs. Iram Diego was aboard for Richard P. Hogue Jr. and trainer Eddie Ruiz.

In the $50,000 Lady Razorback for 2-year-old fillies bred in Arkansas, recent maiden winner All About Allie ($4) rolled to a 4 ¼-length win over Calamity Jane. She covered six furlongs in 1:12.74. Shane Laviolette was aboard for Sanders Brothers and trainer David Whited.
