Touchamatic On Top In Meadows Feature
Touchamatic moved powerfully first over and rolled to a convincing win in Tuesday’s (Aug. 18) feature at The Meadows: a $10,800 Filly & Mare Conditioned Pace.
Touchamatic was away third, and when Aaron Merriman tipped her off the cones she gobbled up pacesetter Amelias Courage A and scored in 1:51.3. Always Giggling rallied from last for second, a half length back, while Camera Lady shot through the Lightning Lane for show.
Bill Bercury trains the six-year-old daughter of American Ideal-Perfect Touch who now boasts 33 wins in 100 starts and earnings of $477,954, for Renee Bercury.
Jim Pantaleano collected three wins on the 15-race card.
Live racing at The Meadows continues Wednesday (Aug. 19) when the 15-race program features a $16,576.67 carryover in the final race Super Hi-5 and an $853.81 carryover in the Early Pick 5 (Race 2). First post is 12:45 p.m. (EDT).
