A dozen years ago, Chuck Pompey, Howard Taylor, and Edwin Gold partnered as owners for the first time, purchasing a female pacer named Economy Terror. After an award-winning career on the track, she became a broodmare for the trio, and on Saturday the group will send out one of her sons, Market Based, in the $600,000 Meadowlands Pace for 3-year-olds at The Meadowlands Racetrack.
Market Based was one of last week’s two Meadowlands Pace elimination winners, along with Beach Glass. Market Based, trained by Nancy Takter, won his elim by a neck over Night Hawk thanks to a career-best 1:48.4 mile with Dexter Dunn in the sulky. Beach Glass captured his split by 5-1/4 lengths over Captain Cowboy in 1:48.1, also a lifetime best.
