CHESTER PA – The Stay Hungry sophomore pacing filly Odds On Aces Full kept grinding away at favored pacesetter Sweet Odds, then beat her to the line by three parts of a length to win the $12,000 feature at Harrah’s Philadelphia Wednesday afternoon in a career best 1:51.4.
Sweet Odds moved past a :26.2 opener to wrest command from a longshot, then went to the midway point in :55.3, with Odds On Aces Full (like the leader bred by Odds On Nourrir) and driver Anibal Borjas moving outside nearing the far turn and the 1:23.1 three quarters. The pacesetter proved resilient, but the winner took her measure late for trainer Tony Alagna and owners Odds On Racing.
In an $11,000 trot for two-year-old fillies, the Six Pack – Sleep Tight My Luv miss Naked And Famous had a journey similar to feature winner Odds On Aces Full, sitting fairly close to the pace and then uncorking an uncovered movethat steadily brought her to victory to 1:58.1 in her first betting start. Glitterati backed out behind the winner’s cover on the far turn, but her late bid came up three quarters of a length short as Naked And Famous won for driver Niko Karna, trainer Noel Daley, and CTC Stable.
Troy Beyer won four races Wednesday to top the Philly drivers; his compatriot in yellow and green, meet leader Tim Tetrick, visited Victory Lane three times.
Racing at Harrah’s Philadelphia will continue this week on Thursday and Friday at 12:25 p.m. and Sunday at 12:40 p.m. The Friday card will feature top-quality three-year-old trotting colts in $164,266 of stakes action in the group’s third preliminary of the Pennsylvania Sire Stakes and Stallion Series.
