Rockin Amadeus (Rocknroll Hanover), driven by Yannick Gingras for trainer Jimmy Takter, was declared the winner via disqualification in his division. Odds On Equuleus, who crossed the line first, was disqualified and placed seventh for interference that caused several horses to break stride entering the far turn. Takter teamed up with the red-hot Tetrick for another victory as, one year after her career almost ended with an injury at the Red Mile, top filly American Jewel coasted to a victory in her division of the Bluegrass Series event for three-year-old pacing fillies. (continued on next page) The Captain did it again last night at the Red Mile (Photo Credit: Nigel Soult) It was the sixth victory in a row for Captaintreacherous, who had not competed in a pari-mutuel race since Sept. 1. The colt, from the first crop of Somebeachsomewhere, was piloted by regular driver Tim Tetrick, who won three Grand Circuit events on the evening, including a division of the event for three-year-old pacing fillies with top filly Ameri- can Jewel (American Ideal). Trainer Tony Alagna sent out two winners on the card, while co-owner Brittany Farms owned, solely or in partnership, three winners. Captaintreacherous was relaxed in the early going, settling in fifth down the backstretch as longshot My One Tru Desire took the field through opening fractions of :27.4, :56.4 and 1:24.2. The colt kicked clear to lead by two lengths exiting the turn, looking to pull the upset. But Captaintreacherous, in the clear on the outside, wore the leader down in the stretch to win handily, stopping the clock in 1:51.3 for the mile. "I talked to Tim after the race, and I said, 'I think that's the biggest race he's ever run,'" Alagna said. "We've always talked about his key is his ability to relax. ... He's just always showed us he had a little extra something, and he's such a smart colt. ... It's a great characteristic in a horse his age."
