Precision Bluechip and Russell Foster went wire to wire in 1:51.1 holding off Carlisimo and Starship to win his fifth of the year in eight starts in the $11,000 Open Handicap.
Carlisimo had been slugging it out at Yonkers with Potomac Pace Champ Leonidas A, Pyro, and the only horse to beat Precision Bluechip at Rosecroft this year, Keep On Rockin A. Still the public made the local champ the 1-1 favorite and he did not let down the wagering public.
Leaving from post seven, Foster cut fractions of :26, :55.1, 1:23, and came home in :28.1 giving Precision Bluechip his 19th career win and pushed his career earnings over $100,000. Courtney Brooks owns and trains the six-year old son of Bettors Delight. She had a double as her stable’s “other” horse Redwood Again also won last night.
