Putnam and White were back in the winner’s circle with another Time to Roll freshman as Roll With Time scored a win in the first division of two-year-old colt pacers. Putnam moved the John Schmucker-owned colt to the outside heading to the half and kept chipping away at the lead, finally taking over in the stretch to win by two and one-quarter lengths in 2:02.2.
