The Åke Svanstedt Stable, winner of five 2-year-old qualifying races during the first baby session at Pocono Downs at Mohegan Pennsylvania a week ago, topped themselves on Wednesday, with six of their freshmen tasting success, including engineering a sweep of the four contests for trotting fillies. Åke Svanstedt drove five winners from his barn, but not the quickest of the fillies. That distinction went to wife Sarah, guiding the Chapter Seven – Plunge Blue Chip miss Kountry Plunge, who stepped home sharply on the front end in 28 3/5 to complete a 1:59 3/5 victory. The $200,000 yearling purchase is owned by Ohm Stable, Svanstedt & Midnight Sun, Bender Sweden Inc., and Ecurie Dicoles AB. Reporting home first for trainer-driver Åke were fillies Dandelion Wine (Ecurie D DK – Plum Wine) in 1:59 4/5 – 57 2/5 – 28 1/5; the Walner – Milady Grace miss Gabriela Beatriz S in 2:00 3/5 – 58 4/5 – 28 4/5; and another Walner filly, Queen Palema (dam Sobti Hanover), tallying in 2:01 3/5 – 58 2/5 – 29 1/5. Perhaps the most impressive winner of the entire session was the International Moni – Fast Reaction trotting colt Moni In His Pocket, who was never headed in a 1:58 mile, last half 57 4/5, for trainer-driver Todd Schadel, who also is a co-owner with wife Christine and Rick and Regina Beinhauer. Team Svanstedt notched wins with two of its male trotting pupils, the Captain Corey – Ready Any Time colt Red Storm Hanover, in 1:59 4/5 – 58 3/5, and Lincoln Kronos (Walner – Chatty Kronos S), pulling the pocket and trotting home strongly in 28 3/5 in a 2:02 1/5 win. The other successful baby male diamond-gaiter was the Greenshoe – Donna Hill colt Green To Go, stepping home in 29 to complete a 2:01 victory. On the pacing side, sire Stay Hungry was responsible for the winners of two of the three events for males, including the quickest, a 1:57 2/5 effort from Atreides (dam Lady Killer), who zipped home in 56 4/5. Trainer Cory Stratton also served as Atreides’s driver for Scott McKenzie and Stratton Stable Inc. The second Stay Hungry winner was Lions Not Sheep (dam Continualou), who came out of the pocket with back fractions of 57 2/5 – 28 2/5 to win in 1:58 3/5 for trainer Nick Devita, still basking in the glow of Dame Good Time’s world record mile at Pocono the day before. The other baby male winner was the Papi Rob Hanover – Warrawee Quick colt Fast Getaway, a winner in 1:57 4/5 – 57 2/5 – 27 4/5 for the hot barn of Todd Schadel. Schadel’s shedrow also produced the fastest freshman filly pacer, another Papi Rob Hanover baby called Dragon Flame (dam Dragon Lady Art), who became the sole Wednesday freshman to win a baby qualifier for the second time, speeding home in identical end fractions of 28 1/5 to stop the timer at 1:59 1/5 for trainer-driver Schadel, also co-owner with Christine Schadel and Caitlin Solt. The 1:59 1/5 was just a tick faster than the times from the two other pacing freshman filly winners: Holly’s Choice (Courtly Choice – Sunshine Hall), who blitzed home in 56 1/5 - 28 to win from the back of the field, and pocket rocket Wine Down Wednesday (Huntsville – Tequila Monday), who came home in 58 2/5 - 29.
