FORT WASHINGTON, Md. — Trainer Bryson Dunning stole the show Monday (Feb. 10) at Rosecroft Raceway, harnessing four winners on the 14-race program.
 
Dunning began his grand slam in the fourth race with All Maxxed Out ($8.00), whom he owns in partnership with Christine Stafford, in 1:55.4. Lucas Myers drove the 4-year-old Emeritus Maximus gelding to victory in the $6,000 event for non-winners of two races. The 21-year-old New Jersey native then teamed up with driver William Carter, who led all drivers with four wins, for a trio of winners for owner P T Stable: Winbak Willy T ($3.40), who rallied to a 1:53.1 score in a $5,500 second-level conditioned pace; Rebellious ($6.00), who held off Shim to win an $8,500 fourth-level conditioned pace; and Southwind Dredge ($4.00), who evaded Phils Sun by 2-3/4 lengths to win the $7,500 claiming finale.
 
Johnny Crites Jr. scored a training triple, sending Pizzagaina ($3.80, 1:55), Luck On The Beach ($2.80, 1:54.2) and Delaware Chrome ($3.00, 1:56.3) to victory.
 
In the $10,000 winners-over pacing feature, Rock Smart ($43.00) circled the field en route to a 20-1 upset, swinging four-wide off the final turn to eclips Horse and even-money favorite Walden Woods by a widening 1-3/4 lengths in 1:53.1. Johnathan Ahle, who drove three winners, drove the 8-year-old Pet Rock gelding to his 30th career win for owner Ken Weckstein.
