Driver Brett Beckwith Continues Hot Streak at Saratoga

Driver Brett Beckwith continued his red hot start to the 2024 season at Saratoga Casino Hotel on Monday as the 21-year-old reinsman piled up four more winners. Beckwith sat behind the afternoon’s feature winner as Go Dancing A (A Rocknroll Dance) overcame post eight to win for the third consecutive time.

The 2-1 favorite in the wagering despite the unlucky post draw, Go Dancing A surged out to the early lead under the urging of an aggressive Beckwith who guided the seven year old to a wire-to-wire Monday score in a $9,500 event for colt and gelding pacers.

Go Dancing A stopped the timer in a ’24 best 1:54.2 in what wound up being a training double for Mark Beckwith. Both Brett Beckwith and Mark Beckwith teamed up for a win with Pax Hanover, who went coast-to-coast in an $8,000 race for young trotters.

Pax Hanover’s victory came in a seasonal best 1:59.1 to complete the Monday grand slam for the young reinsman who has powered out to a commanding lead in the driver standings in the season’s opening month.

Live racing continues on Tuesday afternoon with a matinee that begins at noon.
