Rose Run Parker in third straight victory

By Harnesslink ·

Rose Run Parker took the lead at the quarter and coasted to his third straight harness racing victory in Wednesday's $22,500 Winners Over $10,000 Life/Preferred Handicap Trot at The Meadows.

Rose Run Parker and Dave Palone let the dust settle before attacking the leader, Tamarind. The 5-year-old Jailhouse Jesse-Centergy gelding made the point easily at the quarter and jogged home without a serious challenge. The 1-2 favorite scored in a career-best 1:52.1, 1-1/4 lengths better than Tamarind, with the first-over I Know My Chip third.

Ron Burke trains Rose Run Parker, who boosted his lifetime bankroll to $652,990, for Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi LLC and William Haas, Jr.

Eric Goodell collected three wins on the 15-race card.

In other news the Meadows Standardbred Owners Association has announced that it is donating $2,000 to the horsemen affected by the March 16 fire at the South Florida Training Center.

 
“It’s unfortunate that this situation has happened again, right on the heels of the fire in Ontario earlier this year,” said MSOA President Rich Gillock.  “It’s something you never want to hear, as we know all too well here at The Meadows, after our tragic fire years ago.  We know what our friends in Florida are going through, and we are happy to be able to send some assistance their way.”
 
Funds will be donated through the GoFundMe account set up by Michael Carter of the Post Time with Mike & Mike show.  The funds will then be sent to the Florida Standbred Breeders and Owners Association for distribution to the affected horsemen.
