Hawaiian Alibi gets a perfect trip in Buffalo Feature
Hamburg, NY--- Hawaiian Alibi, a five-year-old His Alibi gelding out of the In The Pocket mare Flask N used a perfect pocket trip, then the passing lane, en route to his second win in a row in 2:00.4 for owner James M. Dunn of Orchard Park, NY.
Trained and driven by reinsman Ron Beback, Jr., Hawaiian Alibi ($11.80) used a :30.2 last quarter mile to beat second place finishers Four Starz Invite and driver Trent Tharps by one length. Early pacesetter, Shrewsbury Falcon (John Cummings, Jr.) came in third.
"I absolutely loved the trip", said Beback. "He won easily, and all I had to do was follow Shrewsbury Falcon all the way home".
The $2,500 share of the winning purse put Hawaiian Alibi’s lifetime bankroll at $48,862
