2008 Meadowlands Pace

Winning driver Ron Pierce said, "The horse has a great trainer. I knew with any kind of trip, and if I could find the wood, he'd be that much better this week. I didn't want Somebeach to get away and someone had to take it to him, and it was up to me and Yannick (driver of Bullville Powerful). I felt confident in the stretch; he swelled up and tipped, the question was to catch Somebeach. I gave him a lick at the 1/16 pole and he took off. I feel mixed emotions because (Somebeachsomewhere) is a great colt, but I had to do my job and the value of my colt just skyrocketed."
