Harrington: Beat Cop lays down the law in DSBF

P T Stable's Beat Cop ($3, Tim Tetrick) won the fastest of three Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund $20,000 divisions for 3-year-old pacing colts and geldings Monday at Harrington Raceway in 1:55 1/5.

The Dragon King gelding out-kicked a game Captain Pete in deep stretch for a narrow win, the 12th of his career, for trainer Crissy Crissman-Bier. Matt's Artist finished third.

In the second division, Ross Wolfenden's Cavalli Island ($2.40, Wolfenden) was a wire-to-wire winner over Rowdy Dragon and There Goes Bubba. The Badlands Hanover gelding is trained by Bobby Glassmeyer and notched his fourth career win.

Rodney Wyatt's Shocking Truth ($10.60, Allan Davis) won the final DSBF division in 1:57 1/5 over Im Still Here and Tug River Patrick. The Badlands Hanover gelding recorded his third win of the season, all at Harrington, for trainer Eddie Dennis.

In the $22,500 Free-For-All overnight feature, David Rovine, KDP Stables' and Mike Hall's Layton Hanover ($5.20, Montrell Teague) was a repeat winner in 1:52 4/5 over I Did It Myway and Sprocket. The 5-year-old son of Captaintreacherous put together a second straight off-the-pace victory for trainer/co-owner Hall in achieving his fifth win of the season, using a first-over grind that saw him wear down pace-setter Baba O'Riley and eventually edge clear in the stretch.

Later in the card, another son of Captaintreacherous dazzled as Tlb Racing's Captaincountrystar ($2.20, Pat Berry) notched his fourth straight win in 1:50 4/5. The Traci Berry trainee was an open length winner under wraps in a new lifetime-best.

Live racing will continue through June 26 on a Monday through Wednesday schedule (post time 4:30 p.m.).
