CHIPS ALL IN GAMELY WIRES FIELD IN $74,260 PASADENA STAKES

ARCADIA, Calif. (March 23, 2012) – Following a dreadful trip in the Grade II Robert B. Lewis Stakes on Feb. 4, Chips All In got back in gear Friday with a gritty wire-to-wire victory in Santa Anita’s 9th running of the $74,260 Pasadena Stakes for 3-year-olds at one mile on turf.

With Alonso Quinonez aboard, Chips All In quickly gained command in the field of 10 with Tones in close pursuit and 2-1 favorite Midnight Crooner stalking in third, and that’s the way they finished in what turned out to be a “carousel race.”
