Harness: Pacing colts on display at Scioto in Ohio Sires Stakes action

Two $50,000 divisions of Ohio Sires Stakes for 3-year-old pacing colts will be contested Saturday night, June 19, at Scioto Downs. The co-featured events have been carded as races five and eight on the program, and both events feature Leg One winners.

Heading up the first division is Four-Star Flash, a Brian Brown trainee that captured his Leg One contest at Miami Valley on May 3 in 1:52. This son of Western Vintage-Keladi Blue Chip-Bettor's Delight was bred by Marion Beachy and is owned by Hutchison Harness LLC, D. Wozniak, D. Van Dusen and Acadia Farms. A winner of $99,760, Four-Star Flash has eight wins, one second and two thirds in 15 career starts. This youngster is the second foal out of his dam, Keladi Blue Chip p, 3, 1:56 3/5f ($18,512) and is a full brother to Diablu Ladi p, 2, 2:07h ($4,718).

Heart Of Chewbacca in the clear standout in the second division. This son of Bring On The Beach-Jt's Chewbacca-Four Starzzz Shark is conditioned by Ron Burke for Dennis Owens and Norman Rae Racing, and captured his OSS Leg one event handily in 1:5 2/5. His last outing - a Scioto overnight - saw him pace to a career-best clocking of 1:48 4/5 with Dan Noble at the lines. Bred by Spring Haven Farm, Heart Of Chewbacca has $276,348 in lifetime earnings from nine wins and three seconds in 12 starts. This black colt is the second of four foals out of his dam, JT's Chewbacca p, 3, 1:53 1/5f ($32,220).
