The public sent Bar Hopping off as the 4-5 betting favorite in the 3-year-old Breeders Crown for trotting colts and was proven right.Driven by Tim Tetrick, Bar Hopping came away in the middle of the pack early on as Sutton assumed control. Southwind Frank was also hustled away but driver Yannick Gingras elected to sit in the pocket rather than make a move to the front.With Sutton posting fractions of 28-3/5 and 56-2/5, Lagerfeld came first-over to apply serious pressure and towed Bar Hopping into contention on his back. Also in the flow was Triple Crown winner Marion Marauder, but he was clearly off his game and unable to keep up with the first two in the outer tier.With three quarters on the board in 1:24 1/5, it was clear that Sutton was in trouble, and that meant Southwind Frank was in a bad spot. Bar Hopping charged to the front in mid-stretch as Southwind Frank desperately searched for room and cleared too late, finishing 1-1/2 lengths behind the favorite for second in the $500,000 final. Double L Lindy was third in the 1:51 4/5 mile, which equaled the stakes record held by Father Patrick. Marion Marauder finished last.Today off cover he really responded well, said Tetrick, who had just finished winning his third straight Breeders Crown race, having won with 2-year-old colts Walner [trotter] and Huntsville [pacer].Walner, said Tetrick when asked which was the most special of the three, but they are all very special for me. Any time you win one of those big trophys its really special.For Gingras, the disappointment was evident. I got a little lost in there. I love to be in front but thats horse racing.Trainer Paula Wellwood said Marion Marauder came out of the race sick. Theres no doubt that hes sick, said Wellwood. I think hes probably got a viral infection. Its one of those things. Thats horse racing. You take the good with the bad. I knew when he got out there that he wasnt himself. Going to the half, you could really see it.Bar Hopping ($3.80) jumped over the $1 million mark in earnings this year to $1,061,795 for owners Christina Takter, Hatfield Stables and Marvin Katz. The son of Muscle Hill-Cocktail Hour, trained by Jimmy Takter, has won eight of 17 starts on the year.?He has a race in Indiana [Carl Erskine] next week that I might go to. I have to talk to the owners, said Takter.Bar Hopping also became eligible to the TVG Final for older horses on November 12 at The Meadowlands, but Takter was against the possibility of entering the 3-year-old.I tried with The Bank last year and it didnt go well, said Takter. Bar Hopping is a better horse, but I dont think Ill try it. Old Skool Vans Authentic .

Cheap Old Skool Vans For Sale . With the short-handed Warriors needing help from someone -- anyone -- to stop a three-game skid, ONeal returned from right knee and groin injuries that had sidelined him for four games and put up season highs with 18 points and eight rebounds. It was just enough to help lift Golden State to a 102-101 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. NEW ORLEANS -- After Drew Brees broke another NFL record with his latest 400-plus-yard passing performance, he stood on a podium and moved his right hand in an ascending motion while discussing the direction of the New Orleans Saints.We want to be on this trajectory, Brees said as he moved his hand up and away from his body. I feel like we are.Brees passed for 465 yards and four touchdowns, Wil Lutz kicked a 52-yard field goal with 11 seconds left, and New Orleans pulled out a 41-38 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday.With his 15th 400-yard game, Brees broke a tie with Peyton Manning for the most all time in the regular season.Brees also led the Saints (2-3) to a second straight victory while Carolina (1-5) lost its fourth straight despite the return of quarterback Cam Newton, who missed last weeks loss to Tampa Bay because of a concussion.Newton passed for 322 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran for a 2-yard score and threw a 2-point conversion to Devin Funchess that tied the game at 38 with 2:58 left, completing a comeback from an early 21-0 deficit.However, Newton was also intercepted by Sterling Moore in the back of the end zone, stalling a promising first-half drive.Newton had little to say afterward, offering terse, vague answers to media inquiries or simply saying, next question. His demeanor nonetheless left little doubt how displeased he was with yet another close loss.Meanwhile, the quarterbacks coaches and teammates made it clear Newtons performance was the least of their concerns.He made some really good decisions, Panthers coach Ron Rivera said. When you score 38 points, you need to give yourself more of a chance to win.Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly credited Carolinas offense for playing well and added, We just have to tighten some things up defensively. We just have to make a play.Tight end Josh Hill scored the Saints final TD on a difficult, leaping 8-yard catch that was initially ruled incomplete.But coach Sean Payton challenged the call and officials ruled on review that Hill had possession long enough for a completion before defensive back Zack Sanchez knocked the ball from Hills grasp.Brees didnt seem bothered that the Saints needed all of his prolific production to win and nearly squandered a three- TD lead.These are defining wins. These are wins you can draw from as the season goes along and really get a lot of strength from, Brees said. It gives you great confidence and poise when situations arise in the future.UNCONVENTIONAL TDSCoby Fleener ran for a 2-yard touchdown on his first career carry -- an end-around on a fourth-and-1 play that capped New Orleans opening drivve.ddddddddddddHe also caught a 50-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter on a play that Brees said didnt quite develop as drawn up because Fleener and receiver Willie Snead ran their routes too close together, causing a convergence of players over the middle.All of a sudden all these bodies were in this melee and heres Coby, coming down with it and taking it the distance, Brees said. It worked out nicely.CLUTCH KICKINGLutzs winning kick came after hed missed an earlier attempt from 53 yards. Lutz said that the moment Carolina tied it at 38, he told punter Thomas Morstead, who also holds on field goals, and long snapper Justin Drescher, Lets go win the game.Like Ive been saying all year -- its about the next kick, Lutz said.TOP TARGETSSaints receiver Brandin Cooks had an 87-yard touchdown catch to highlight his career-high 173-yard outing on seven catches. Saints rookie Michael Thomas caught his third touchdown pass in as many games. Fleener had six catches for 74 yards.Funchess caught a 17-yard touchdown pass from Newton and Carolina tight end Ed Dickson hauled in a 1-yard TD that Newton tossed as he scrambled to his left.PENALTY PRONEThe Saints were flagged for pass interference three times at or near the goal line, and the Panthers cashed in all three times with touchdowns. In all, New Orleans had 10 penalties for 126 yards.Panthers penalties included Kawann Shorts unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for leveling Brees after his touchdown toss to Hill.It looked like he straight punched me in the mouth, Brees said. Thats what it felt like.BACK IN ACTIONPanthers running back Jonathan Stewart returned after missing three games with a hamstring injury and rushed for 85 yards on 19 carries, including two short touchdowns in the fourth quarter.Hill played for the first time since injuring his ankle in Week 1.INJURIESSaints left tackle Andrus Peat, who was filling in for injured starter Terron Armstead, left the game late in the first half with an apparent left leg injury.
