Phi Beta Doc, a 3-year-old gelding who ran fifth as the favorite June 5 at Pimlico Race Course, sneaked by the bettors in the $76,500 Nick Shuk Memorial Stakes yesterday at Delaware Park and won at odds of 43-1.
Trained by Robert W. Leonard at Fair Hill, Phi Beta Doc paid $89.20 to win after catching the front-running Mythical Gem in the final strides. Ridden by Mario Verge and trained by H. Graham Motion, Mythical Gem was the 4-5 favorite.
