 Driver Tim Tetrick and St. Elmo Hero surged up to take command around the opening turn and were never seriously challenged en route to victory in 1:50.1. Now three-for-three at the Meadowlands, St Elmo Hero looms the one to beat in the $65,000 Complex final next Saturday.

Charles Eustis III trains the son of Western Hero, who upped his career bankroll to $165,000. John Barnard claimed St. Elmo Hero, an unraced 4-year-old gelding, for a mere $8,000 out of his first career start on July 14, 2010 at Balmoral Park. (Meadowlands)
