Captain Albano will head to the final start of his career Wednesday as the morning-line favorite in the $267,960 Progress Pace at Bally’s Dover, where he will meet seven rivals in the season’s last Grand Circuit event for 3-year-old male pacers.

Last week, Captain Albano and driver Todd McCarthy won the single Progress Pace elimination by a half-length over Better Is Nice in 1:49.4.
