This week’s Open Trot included Chip Chip Conway and Cinamon Stick, resembling the Open battles from previous years.

After the heavy favorite Doo Wop Kid made a break leaving the gate, Reel EM In was pretty much left alone throughout the mile to get the win in 1:58 – $31.80, Carrera Hanover uncorked a last Q of 28.3 to get up for second followed by Chip Chip Conway.  Reel Em In was driven by Kyle Dibenedetto, it was the third seasonal win for the Robert Dill trainee.

Thomas Merton had a driving double on the day
