Coming off of the oh so close heartbreaking second place finish in the world record Meadowlands Pace 2008, Somebeachsomewhere faced five other three year olds at Mohawk on August 3rd. Paul Macdonell sent Somebeachsomewhere straight to the front off of the gate setting fractions of 28.1 and 55.0 flat, still holdng at the 3/4 in 1:22.2 up by a length and a half, and cruised to a very relaxed near track record two and three quarter length victory in 1:49.0. He looked comfortable and in fine shape and Paul had a big smile on his face as the big horse coasted through the wire.
