ALL THE TIME – bay filly by Muscle Hill, out of Cantab It All. All The Time finished third-placed-second in the second Hambletonian Oaks elimination for driver Yannick Gingras, trainer Jimmy Takter, and owners/breeders Al Libfeld and Marvin Katz of Ontario. A filly by Muscle Hill, All The Time is out of the Cantab Hall mare Cantab It All, who was fourth in her Hambletonian Oaks elimination in 2010. Gingras and Takter have won the last two editions of the Hambletonian Oaks (Wild Honey – 2015 and Lifetime Pursuit – 2014) and another win for Takter would tie him with Jan Johnson for the most Oaks tallies in history with six. Libfeld and Katz have won the Oaks twice together (1998 – Fern and 2008 – Creamy Mimi). So far during her 3-year-old campaign, All The Time won a division of the New Jersey Sire Stakes and a W.N. Reynolds Memorial split at the Meadowlands. She was the runner-up in the New Jersey Sire Stakes final and her Del Miller Memorial event, also at The Big M. At two, she was the Breeders Crown and New Jersey Sire Stakes champion. In her career, All The Time has 10 victories, has banked $577,616, and has a lifetime mark of 1:52.3, taken at the Meadowlands.

Earned $48,928 and set a lifetime mark of 1:56 as a two-year-old at Pocono Downs. At two, winner of two races in seven starts, both being conditioned races at Pocono Downs.

Finished fourth in Oaks elimination to Side Bet Hanover at 64-1. Trainer Michael Eaton is aiming for his first win in the Hambletonian Oaks. “I bought her at the Meadowlands Sale, the beginning of August and I paid $9,000,” Mike Eaton said in a USTA interview. “She showed two race lines, one a break and one qualifying a mile in 2:01.2. She looked OK, real good breeding, good legs and she had a hematoma on her left side, but it didn’t seem to bother her. “We picked out about 35 horses to bid on and she was number three in the sale. We got her for $9,000 and we were thrilled with her. We thought we’d get more, but then the prices started going up and she was the only one we came home with.” Driver Brett Miller tries for his first win in the Hambletonian Oaks. Miller makes his third start in the Oaks final, with his others being Tweet Me (2014, 100-1) and Classical Annie (2015, 122-1). Broadway Hall has sired one Oaks winner, Broadway Schooner (2009, 6-1).
