Napolitano nets another six bagger

At 0h05, on March 15, 2021 By POCONO DOWNS

The perennial “king” of the driving colony at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono, George Napolitano Jr., is serving early notice that he will be tough to dethrone in 2021, posting his second-straight card of posting six victories on Sunday (March 14).

The double sextet now gives George a 38-31 advantage over his brother Anthony, and quick math shows the pair has won 41 percent of all races held at the mountain track during the first 12 days of the meet.

On Monday, 14 of the 15 horses claimed out of the first round of the Game Of Claims Trotting Series for $15,000-base-priced horses, including three of the four winners, are scheduled to go for their new connections in four $15,000 second-round prelims. Monday’s first post is 12:30 p.m.
