Shakes lands brace of longshots

Richie Shakes rattled yesterday’s 10-race card with two longshots including WHIZZ KIDD, who benefited from a collapsing pace to stun rivals at odds of 23-1 in the O & S Tack Room Trophy at a mile.

Shakes had earlier upended bettors with three-year-old maiden winner, MS PROSECUTOR, who surged forward under gentle handling to outfinish 8-1 chance ONEDEGEHDEGEHLINKS, closing the Reggae 6 at odds of 21-1, sending an $8.22 million carryover to today’s mandatory payout, which should exceed $20 million.

Whereas MS PROSECUTOR had no history of upsets, a maiden out for her seventh start, WHIZZ KIDD, claimed May 25 by E Anthony Subratie as a 22-1 runner-up to AWESOME ANTHONY, had last won on February 14 as a 67-1 shocker, chasing down RANI BANGALA at seven furlongs.
