Ocean Downs: Yall Beneath Me trots track record mile

Driver Russell Foster was on a mission Wednesday (Aug. 25) night when he sent Yall Beneath Me (Googoo Gaagaa) out of the gate in the early non-wagering Maryland Sire Stakes event for 4- and 5-year-old horse and gelding trotters.

The pair sped away from the field by six lengths at the quarter-pole, by 10 at the half, by 12 at the three-quarters and flew home 22 lengths in front, stopping the timer in an all-age trotting track record of 1:54 at Ocean Downs.

Richard Hans owns, trains and bred Yall Beneath Me. The place spot went to Gaareat Gaazoo (Googoo Gaagaa), also bred by Hans.

The 4- and 5-year-old trotting mare division saw a stakes record as well, as Callmegaga (Googoo Gaagaa) circled the field at the three-quarters to stop the clock in 1:59 2/5, with Whitesville Peg charging down the stretch for second.

Callmegaga is owned by William B. Roberts and Graham Grace Stables, and, keeping it a family affair, Megan Roberts trains and Jonathan Roberts drives the winner for their father.
