Cal Expo cards Alan Horowitz Memorial
At 0h01, on January 1, 2023 • By CAL EXPO
Nebble Hanover, a dominating winner in the first two legs, heads the cast for Sunday night’s (Jan. 1) $30,000 Alan Horowitz Memorial Pace at Cal Expo.
Watch and Wager LLC will present 11 races with a first post of 4:55 p.m.
A 4-year-old Pennsylvania-bred daughter of Well Said, Nebble Haover is unbeaten in her five starts at this meet for her owner/driver/trainer Chip Lackey and is eyeing her 16th win overall from 59 trips to the post.
Nebble Hanover started this session with a victory at the Open level, cruised through the Bill Vallandingham Pace with a pair of easy scores and has come back with equal ease to account for the first two legs of the Horowitz.
Sent off at 10 cents on the dollar in her division of Leg 2 on Monday, Lackey sent his charge to the front past the quarter and she prevailed by a length and a half over Flying Officer.
Lackey also guided the winner of the other division on that program as he made every pole a winning one behind Ideal One A for owner William Neumeister and trainer Bob Johnson.
The 11-year-old gelding is looking to add to a $160,371 bank account this weekend and will have Rene Goulet at the controls.
Rounding out the field, from the rail out, are Rockinscience, Villa For Rent, Flying Officer, Prom Queen, Some Playa, Pecorino, Rockin Jimmy Brown and Impressive Art.
