Tioga Downs played host to four Geers Stakes races and four Arthur Tompkins Memorial races for freshman pacers and trotters of both sexes on Friday (August 10).

In the second $30,000 division of the Geers Stakes for freshman pacing fillies, Zero Tolerance (David Miller) took over after Tyler Buter took Money Shot Hanover (racing for purse only) to a first quarter in :27.4. Zero Tolerance ($2.80) put up the rest of the fractions (:56.3, 1:24.2, 1:52.1). Money Shot Hanover held for second and JK American Beauty was third.

Zero Tolerance is a two-year-old filly by Heston Blue Chip out of Feelinglikeastar. Her winning time was just one-fifth of a second off the track record for freshman pacing fillies set last year by Youaremycandygirl. She is now three-for-four in her career.
