Right now, Cusdmagicdragon ($2.80) is breathing fire. On Wednesday night (Dec. 16), British Columbia s top distaff pacer delivered a third straight knockout blow to mixed company, doing so by way of a 1:53.3 win in the $8,100 Open Handicap Pace at Fraser Downs.
Scott Knight left mildly with Cusdmagicdragon from her assigned outside post 5, but waited for a three-horse battle for early contention to play out before working the five-year-old Custard The Dragon mare to the fore but she had to expend a considerable amount of effort to clear. Rockin Mystery (Rod Therres), who had won the :26.2 first-quarter skirmish, strung Cusdmagicdragon out to a :55.3 half, but the mare cruised home from there. Up the backstretch, Intrigued Again (Tony Kerwood) angled first-over from last and advanced all the way into second over a tiring Rockin Mystery at the 1:24.3 three-quarter station.
