Trainer Tim McCanna and jockey Kevin Krigger somehow managed to be hotter than the 94-degree weather Thursday at Emerald Downs.
McCanna tied a state record by saddling five winners while Krigger set a career-high by riding five winners. Together they combined to win the third, fourth, fifth and seventh races.
And they accomplished all this on only a seven-race card.
McCanna, who tied the track and state record shared by Doris Harwood (2009) and Jim Penney (1998), also accomplished an Emerald Downs first by recording two wins in one race when Vickys Fast Boy ($3.20) and A Black Thorn ($4.40)—both trained by McCanna—dead-heated for first place in the fourth race.
