Tioga Hosts NYSS Fillies Sunday
Tioga Downs welcomes two divisions of the New York Sire Stakes (NYSS) for two-year-old pacing fillies on Sunday (July 19).
Albergita Hanover (Roll With Joe-Armbro Amoretto) appears to be the one to beat in the first division, featuring a purse of $49,500. Trained by Linda Toscano and driven by Scott Zeron, she finished second in her career debut in a NYSS race at Vernon Downs on July 4.
Rightfully Mine (American Ideal-Leah) should be stiff competition. She finished third in her first career start, also during a leg of the NYSS at Vernon Downs. She will be driven by Jason Bartlett for trainer Monique Cohen.
The $50,400 second division features Easy To Please (Jim Morrill Jr.) and Test Of Faith (Jim Marohn Jr.). Both are coming off NYSS wins at Vernon Downs.
Easy To Please (Roll With Joe-Lorrie Please) is trained by Michael Hall. She comes in two-for-two in her young career.
The Brett Pelling-trained Test Of Faith (Art Major-Cannae Cammie) put in an impressive 1:52.2 gate-to-wire win in her debut at Vernon. Her second career start will be on Sunday.
Tioga's 11-race Sunday card starts at 1:00 p.m.
