Trainer Margaret Spagnola had a monster night on Wednesday at Saratoga as she added four wins to her season’s total. 

Young pacer Back Beyond (Artiscape) broke his maiden in the evening’s opener with Scott Mongeon in the sulky. The night just kept getting better for Spagnola as her Art Bettor Now (Bettor's Delight) prevailed for the second time in three local tries, scoring in 1:58 with Brian Cross in the sulky. 

Spagnola trotters You Bet Your Life (Malabar Man) pulled off the upset at 26-1 and Jocular went wire-to-wire to complete the training grand slam. 

Mongeon and Cross each piloted two of the Spagnola winners on the card. Spagnola currently sits in a tie for third in the trainer standings for 2012. 

With the win, Evil Eva, owned by Mo Coo Inc. of Merrick, N.Y. and Jonathan Klee Racing of Mineola, N.Y., increased her seasonal winnings to $58,885. Alicia Gray conditioned the winner.
