Harrington: Archie And Emerson quickest in DSBF elims

Driver Montrell Teague had five wins on the Monday Harrington Raceway program, which was headlined by a trio of Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund (DSBF) $20,000 divisions for male pacers.

Three of Teague's wins came aboard Clyde Francis trainees, including front-stepping Henrico ($2.10), who completed a sweep of his DSBF eliminations with a 1:57 3/5 victory over Squeak On By and Justflirtingwithu. The Delmarvalous gelding has won five of 13 career starts for owners Francis and Mst Racing Inc.

Kdk Standardbreds' Archie And Emerson ($5.20, Jason Thompson) was the fastest DSBF winner of the night with a 1:56 4/5 tally for trainer Dylan Davis. The Delmarvalous gelding was a wire-to-wire winner for the second straight week over Subban and Mister Ramsey. It was his fifth career triumph.

Leonard Hubbard's Z's Dream ($3.80, Art Stafford Jr.) was a 1:57 winner over First State Joni and Downtown Show in the remaining DSBF division. The Dream Away gelding was determined to make the front early, and he would stay there for a two length score, the sixth of his career for trainer Andrew Stafford. The top eight point earners will return to compete in the $100,000 final on July 29.

Teague and Francis teamed up for a victory in the overnight feature, the $20,000 Open, as Goldberg ($10.20) was a 1:52 winner via a pocket trip over Keep On Rocking A and Jack's Legend N. Teague is currently second in the driver standings.

The meet's leading driver, Allan Davis, had three wins on the card. Russell Foster had a double.
