2008 Tioga Downs Pacer of the Year Winbak Dimensions captured his first victory of the year in the $15,000 Open Handicap Pace on Sunday afternoon.
Corey Braden sent Winbak Dimensions from the two hole to capture a pocket ride behind post time favorite Bullville Powerful (Jim Taggart Jr.) through fractions of 27.3, 55.3, and 1:24.1.
As the field rounded the final turn, Braden sent Winbak Dimensions to the outside and battled Bullville Powerful to the wire getting up to win by a neck in 1:52.1.
Although it was the first win in 10 seasonal starts, the 7-year old son of Village Jove-Exact Dimenions has banked more than $27,000, and has missed the board only twice.
