FORMER Australian pacer Shoobee Doo improved to two-for-two at Harrington Raceway this season with an easy win in the $20,000 Open Pace last night.

Driven by Corey Callahan, Shoobee Doo made the lead on wet conditions as the 1-to-9 favourite at the opening quarter in 27.3 seconds, with long shot Sprocket amidst a first over grind through a half-mile in 55.3 seconds.

The seven-year-old continued to lead to three-quarters in 1:23.4 while Sprocket tired and the former opened up a two-length lead in the stretch for his 28th win over Slick Tony and Baba O’Riley.

Trained by co-owner Davis, Shoobee Doo boosted his earnings to $312,175 and has been victorious in both Open events early in the Harrington meet.

Elsewhere on the card trainer Crissy Crissman-Bier, owner Wade Wyatt and driver Ross Wolfenden teamed up for three wins, with Automatic Dragon ($4.80), Iminurblindspot ($4.40) and Rose Run Uriah ($16.60).

Allan Davis and Pat Berry each had a double.
