Meadows Preferred To Rompaway Galaxy

Published: November 25, 2015 06:20 pm EST

Rompaway Galaxy moved powerfully first over, collared the leader in mid-stretch and captured Wednesday’s $18,000 Preferred Handicap Trot at The Meadows.

Rompaway Galaxy was sitting third for Mike Wilder when he set sail after the leader, Ladys Dude, who was seeking his third straight victory. The four-year-old Rompaway Wally-Rompaway Wynona gelding put away Ladys Dude and held off the Lightning Lane charge of Tall Cotton to down him by a length in 1:54.1. Ladys Dude saved show.

Marty Wollam trains Rompaway Galaxy, who now boasts $509,486 in career earnings, for Rompaway Farms.

Aaron Merriman, Jim Pantaleano and Wilder each collected three wins on the 15-race card.

Live racing resumes Monday at The Meadows following a Thanksgiving break. First post Monday is 12:55 p.m.
