Another track mark was recorded Tuesday night (June 6) at Running Aces.

Six-year-old trotting mare Al Mar Reba Babe turned in a career-best performance in 1:55.1, as she circled the field and drew away to win by more than 11 lengths. The performance equalled the brand new track record that was set this past Saturday night (June 2) by Silverlode.

Gerald Longo was the winning pilot for the ‘Babe’s record mile. She is owned by her trainer, Richard Davis. Al Mar Reba Babe ($6.80) has now won nine races and $76,667 in purses.

The $12.000 Mares Open Handicap Pace featured a very talented field of seven distaffers, and turned out to be a familiar matchup between two top pacing mares from the local 2017 season. Gold Star Mysti (driven by James Yoder) and Kiss On The Lips (Nick Roland) found themselves trading blows throughout the contest. Kiss On The Lips was the early leader, but Gold Star Mysti surged past just before the quarter pole. Things remained that way until the top of the lane, where Kiss On The Lips and Roland immediately pounced from the pocket. The action made for a thrilling stretch drive. Kiss On The Lips prevailed by a half-length at the wire in 1:53.4. Kiss On The Lips ($4.60) is owned by Peg Hoffman, and trained by Gerald Longo, she has now won four of 21 starts this year, and now has 33 lifetime wins and $195,648 in the bank.

Driver Steve Wiseman remained white-hot on Tuesday – following up his five-win performance on Sunday – with another grand slam of four wins on the night. Nick Roland completed a hat trick and James ‘JD’ Yoder recorded a driving double.

The 20-cent Jackpot Pick 5 wager now has a carryover of $3,817.32 for this coming Saturday (June 9).

Live racing at Running Aces is conducted three nights a week (on Tuesdays, Saturdays and Sundays).
