Iheartquestionmark In Plainridge Feature
Owned and trained by Janet Davis, Iheartquestionmark got her second win in a row and her fourth in her last five starts when taking the $12,000 Abigail Adams condition feature at Plainridge Park on Tuesday, Nov. 20.
Twist Of Fate was calling the shots on the point in the feature and took the field to the half in :59.2. Iheartquestionmark, who had gotten away sixth, then motored up the outside second over behind Angel Or Terror who had pulled past the three-eighths.
As the race progressed up the backside and the outer flow stalled in the mud, driver Steve Nason tipped Iheartquestionmark three high at the three-quarters and put a circle around the girls by the time they hit the top of the stretch. From there Iheartquestionmark paced home with authority under mild urging from Nason to win by a length and one-half in 1:57.3.
It was the ninth win of the year for Iheartquestionmark ($3.40) who now has $60,750 on the card in 2018. The nine-year-old daughter of General Aidid was driven by Nason for her last two victories.
There was an eye-popping instant jackpot in the tenth race at Plainridge Park on Tuesday. The Wicked Hi-5 pentafecta combination of 3-4-1-5-2 returned $32,824.60 for a $1 wager.
There will be no racing on Thursday this week at Plainridge Park in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. Live racing will resume on Monday, Nov. 26 at 1 p.m. to kick off the final week of racing for the year.
