After missing by just a neck last week, Euchred got the job done in the featured top pace at Inverness Raceway on Sunday afternoon (June 26).

Trained and driven by Walter Walker, Euchred lead most of the way in the $1,700 Winners Over Pace, winning by four lengths over 6-5 favourite Betterthanbutter (Zach Mullins) while Rockemsockem Scott (John Kennedy) was a non-threatening third, finishing with broken equipment after moving first-up on the backside.

Sent postward as the 5-2 third choice in the six-horse field, Euchred left from post four and cleared early leader Betterthanbutter through a :28 opening quarter then cruised through middle splits of :57.1 and 1:27.1 on his way to the 1:56.3 victory. He paid $7.10 to win.

The 10-year-old Shadow Play gelding earned his first win of the season from three starts for local owner Kayla Habicht Walker and he now boasts 69 victories on his career record with more than $150,000 in earnings.
