SCOTT ROCKS, WILL TAKE CHARGE WIN SATURDAY 46G CO-FEATURES

From post position No. 4 in the weekly pacing feature, Scott Rocks had to work around 95-1 pole-assigned Great Vintage. He did, making the lead right at a 26.2 opening quarter-mile. The longshot leaver forced slight 5-2 favorite Caviart Luca to take a three-hole before that one made a second move.

Caviart Luca went after Scott Rocks from a 55.3 intermission to a 1:22.4 three-quarters, with The Real One second-over. Scott Rocks owned a length-and-three-quarter leader into the lane, then closed the sale.

He defeated The Real One by three-quarters of a length, with Caviart Luca third. A belated eight-holer Micky Gee N and Proven Desire picked off the remainder.

Will Take Charge did his bidding from post No. 7 in the week's marque trot. Out into the second turn, he eventually went past In Secret after that one's 27.3 opening quarter.

From there, intervals of 56.3, 1:25.4 and a season-best-matching 1:54 made it fairly simple. The final margin over In Secret was a length-and-three-quarters, with 13-10 choice Melady's Monet a never-in-it third. New Heaven and Eye ofa Tiger AS settled for the smaller envelopes.
