Four other owners were game enough to add their juvenile males to the mix against REV Racing’s unbeaten “monster of a racehorse” Trackattacker in the $50,000 Daily Racing FormDennis Dodge Stakes.

The overwhelming betting favorite since winning his maiden special weight bow by nine lengths, Trackattacker was the easiest of winners in his latest stakes effort, drawing off to a 9 1/4-length score in 1:09.27. In this win, as in his two previous stakes tallies, Trackattacker paid the rarely seen $2.10 across the board. (The other four runners in the Dennis Dodge went off at $13.50 to $32.20 odds.)

The impressive gelding, who hails from top trainer Frank Lucarelli’s barn, has won his four starts by a combined 36 1/4 lengths. The race marked Lucarelli’s fourth Washington Cup victory and eleventh top-three finish.

All of Trackattacker’s wins have come with Leslie Mawing in the saddle, who now has eight Washington Cup wins in the books.

“He’s just such a great horse to be on, mentally and physically,” said Mawing. “He does it with such ease. I tapped him one time down the lane just to make sure he’s paying attention to winning the race.”

Bred by Dr. Duane and Susan Hopp, the future star was sold through their Castlegate Farm consignment at the 2013 WTBOA summer sale where Roy and Ellie Schaefer paid $25,000 for the son of Harbor the Gold out of Eclatante, a mare by In Excess (Ire) who placed in three Emerald stakes for the Hopps. Eclatante’s half-sister, seven-race winner Stephanie Plum, finished fourth in the Pegasus Training Center Stakes in the next race. She and Among the Stars, who ran third in the Comcast SportsNet Stakes, were also bred and raised at the Hopps’ picturesque Graham farm and were also each a WTBOA sales graduate.

Trackattacker has now earned $86,343 in the Port Orchard couple’s turquoise and white colors.

Roy Lumm trainees finished in the place and show spots, as Delbert Kelly, Mort Robbins and Lumm’s Private Boss (Private Gold-Irene’s Bonus Baby) outfinished his stablemate, Blue Diamond Stable and Janet Johnson’s Moby (Harbor the Gold-Last Thoughts), by two lengths.
