I thought it was a real tough division, with having the outside. David did a good job; he followed a good horse and got us into the final. I thought he trotted strong right down to the wire and that’s about all we could ask of him.” • Campbell on moving on to the Hambletonian: “We haven’t raced him back-to- back very much this year, just trying to keep him fresh with having this race in mind. I think he’s coming into it on a pretty good note. He hasn’t been over-raced or anything like that. Hopefully, he has a good week. We’re in it, and that’s the first step you’ve got to take.” • Finished fourth in his Hambletonian elimination after being parked for half the mile from post eight. • Prior to the eliminations, Campbell said: “Overall, I’m pretty happy with the way he’s coming into it. He’s gone some good races for us this year. He’s got high speed. He’s got a good attitude and likes to do his work. He can race either way, toward the front or come from behind. He’s pretty versatile that way.” • Came into his elimination off a third-placed-sixth finish in a Stanley Dancer division. • Won a PASS in 1:53.2 at Harrah’s Philadelphia on June 23rd and finished second in his Reynolds division at the Meadowlands on July 10th. • Kicked off his three year old year with a 1:55.4 win in an overnight event at Harrah’s Philadelphia. • Capped off his freshman year with a third in his Breeders Crown elimination and a fourth in the Breeders Crown final. • His first career win came in the Bluegrass at the Red Mile in a career best of 1:52.3. • Take All Comers hit the board in four of his first six starts as a two year old.
