GV Crystal Ball posted the season’s fastest time with driver Mark Richardson at the helm during weekend harness racing at Bermuda Equestrian Centre.

Eddie Roque’s stallion ran a 1:04/1 in the Free for All to better the previous mark (1:04/2) — held by Philip Correia’s stud Cherokee Superman — by one fifth of a second.

Correia, meanwhile, endured mixed fortunes at the racetrack.

He was a double heat winner with Cameron Harris’ stallion, Brona’s Mike, and gelding, Nite Dreamer.

However, his day ended on a low note after his stud, Cherokee Superman, injured a leg in the opening heat of the Free for All and was scratched from the second.

“Cherokee Superman had a little hiccup and it was more my fault,” Correia admitted. “I made an adjustment to the harness that didn’t work out so great looking for more speed.

“He grazed a leg but it didn’t slow him down. But I scratched him (from the second Free for All heat) as a precaution.”

Correia did rival driver Harris a big favour.

His victory in the 1:05-1:06 time bar with Brona’s Mike moved Harris’ stallion up a time bar to the Free for All.

“Cameron was away and I was just test driving it and took it up a time bar,” Correia explained. “Brona’s Mike ran really well.”

The evergreen David Lopes recorded the most wins on the day.

The 71-year old driver chalked up three wins with gelding Pastor Paul (1:07/2-1:08/2 time bar) and mare LA Erma Time (1:10/4-1:12/4 time bar) to cap a memorable day of racing.

Zinho Cooper and Casey Truran were the remaining multiple heat winners.

Cooper posted two wins in the 1:07/2-1:08/2 time bar with stallion GV Smokem that did just that to the competition.

Truran swept both heats in the 1:13 & Slower time bar with stallion Inwood’s Generation respectively.
