Imagine Hanover moved to the front at his leisure Monday and rolled to his second straight victory in Monday’s Winning Mister Trot at The Meadows.
Although Imagine Hanover captured his opening-leg division on the lead, Brett Miller allowed him to relax from the gate and get away third. The Broadway Hall-Imposing Hanover colt grabbed the lead past the quarter and coasted home, scoring in 1:59. Early leader Done Andover It was second, with Mr Mysterio third.

The Traveler (1:57.2 – Brett Miller/Bruce Riegle) and Born To Fight (1:58.1 – Brian Zendt/Bill Zendt) took the other $11,250 splits in the second leg of the series for three-year-old colts and geldings.
In the $22,500 Filly & Mare Preferred Handicap Pace, Tremor Hanover powered to the lead past the quarter and held off the late rally of Ali Rush to defeat that rival by a half-length margin in 1:52.4. Do Me Honor came from well back for show.
Brian Zendt drove the seven-year-old daughter of Allamerican Native-Terrie Letsgo, who extended her career bankroll to $411,746, for trainer Aaron Johnston and owners Charles Moses and Shawn Johnston.
