Nobody Can picked up his biggest payday of the season on Friday at Fraser Downs thanks to his gate-to-wire score in the $25,000 final of the Sandown Plate
, which was contested prior to the card as a non-wagering event.
Jim Marino mapped out the trip for the Ed Hensley trainee, who laid down fractions of :28, :58.4 and 1:28.1 before costing home in a :31-second clip to stop the teletimer in 1:59.1. RS Merlin rallied from the back of the bus to finish in the runner-up spot while True Humilty and Who Hit Jimmy finished third and fourth, respectively.
Bred and owned by J J J Stables of Aldergrove, BC and Alan Anderson of Willows, CA, Nobody Can notched his first win of the year and the sixth of his career in just 11 trips postward. His $13,750 share of the purse bumped his lifetime earnings to $64,231.
