CHESTER PA – A trio of $16,000 contests shared the spotlight on a special Friday evening card at Harrah’s Philadelphia with driver Andrew McCarthy, who won four races, including the featured pace and the faster of the two featured trots.
The Captaintreacherous sophomore filly Tarryn A Strip is now two for three since coming to the local oval and joining the barn of trainer Jennifer Bongiorno, winning Friday in 1:52, just a tick off her lifetime mark. Tarryn A Strip did not have an easy path to Victory Lane, being caught very wide early and not making the lead until the 3/8 for McCarthy, yet she still had enough to withstand the wide late burst of Ponder The Odds by a half-length for Glenview Livestock LTD and Cheryl Cherry.
