Once Ellieonthemove got moving, there was no stopping her as she romped to a 1-3/4-length win over Laughing Emoji N in Buffalo Raceway's featured $9,000 Class A-Open Pace for fillies and mares on Wednesday night (April 7).

Ellieonthemove was parked for most of the opening quarter as Yankee Secret tried to take some of the starch out of her. That ploy didn't work, as once Ellieonthemove ($3.50) got in gear, there was no looking back.

Grabbing the front end after an opening split of :28.2, driver Kevin Cummings and Ellieonthemove controlled fractions of :58 and 1:27.1 before crossing the line in 1:56.1 over a fast track. Laughing Emoji N (David McNeight III) rallied late for the place position with Yankee Secret (Ray Fisher Jr.) taking third.

Ellieonthemove is a six-year-old Well Said-Ireneonthemove mare that has now earned $17,316 this season and $110,564 lifetime. It was her fourth victory in 10 tries in 2021, and her third in four starts for owner Sidney Easton and trainer Anthony Cummings.

In the $7,200 Class B Pace for the ladies, Robintheatm (Jim Morrill Jr.) collected her fourth straight win by holding off Supreme Dumpling (Billy Davis Jr.) by a half length in 1:56.4.

Robintheatm ($9.30) is owned by Mike Torcello and conditioned by Gerry Sarama. The nine-year-old mare has now bankrolled $13,825 on the season and $167,162 in her career.

Keystone Apache ($4.40) went first-over just before the half and cruised home from there in a four-length, 1:59.3 score over Barn Beast (Kevin Cummings) in the $7.200 Class B Trot.

It was the third decision in six attempts for Keystone Apache, who is owned by Vogel & Wags Nags Stable, Team Rice Racing and Adelphia Bloodstock and trained by Maria Rice. The six-year-old gelding has now produced $8,625 in winnings on the campaign and $232,367 lifetime.

Davis led the way with three victories in the sulky while Shawn McDonough and Morrill each collected a pair. Sarama, McDonough and Jim Graham each posted a pair of training wins.

Racing will continue on Saturday evening (April 10) with a 12-race card scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. For more information including the latest news, race replays, results and entries, go to www.buffaloraceway.com.
