Moody wins Average, Brazile wins Triple Crown

Going into round 10 Jill Moody and Sherry Cervi were battling it out for the $44K + 1st place average cheque. One of them was going to take second. Fortunately for Cervi, tipping third barrel only cost her the average title and the difference in money from first and second. Cervi still got second in the average having been so tough all week. This is the second time Moody has won 1st in the average, this time with a record fast time on 10 runs.
In the round Angie Meadors and Mulberry tied Brittany Pozzi and Duke for first. Duke was firing on all cylinders for that run, much like we had anticipated he would at the beginning of the week. This world championship is Sherry Cervi's third win. She has won each on a different horse. Troubles, Hawk and now Stingray.
