Sean Avery shot to the lead and kept Trappe Shot's stretch run in check to post a 17-1 upset in the Grade 1, $250,000 Alfred G. Vanderbilt Handicap on Sunday at Saratoga Race Course.
Seeking his fourth victory in five 2011 starts, Sean Avery was sent to the lead by jockey Joe Bravo, maintained a clear advantage through fractions of 21.91 and 44.56, was put to a drive as odds-on favorite Trappe Shot commenced his stretch run, and got his nose down at the right moment to register the upset score.
Sean Avery, named for the New York Rangers left winger, paid $36.20 for a $2 win wager and completed six furlongs in 1:09.71.
