PASS Action Wednesday At The Meadows

Sires stakes action at the Meadows kicks into high gear this week, with Pennsylvania stakes highlighting six consecutive cards beginning today

.

Wednesday’s program is particularly compelling, as 11 stakes divisions will be offered, featuring two and three-year-old pacing fillies, a number of them which are already in the limelight.

The $298,316 Sand Tart, a PASS for freshman fillies, will be contested over six divisions. Among the favourites will be Winbak Farm’s Hasty Pulse, who captured her career debut July 7 in a W.N. Reynolds division at Pocono Downs. Shuffled to third at the three-quarters, Hasty Pulse blazed home in :27.4 to score in a sparkling 1:53.4. Ron Burke trains the daughter of Quik Pulse Mindale--Hasty Dewar.

Hasty Pulse has drawn Post 3 in Race 10, where she’ll encounter another Reynolds winner, Mothermayi Hanover, a daughter of Allamerican Native--Mother Earth who recorded a wire-to-wire victory in 1:54.3 for trainer Luis Porfilio and owners Luis Alberto and Angela Porfilio.

Also attracting attention in the Sand Tart will be Show And Tell, who took her Reynolds division with a rugged, first-over move after relinquishing the early lead. The daughter of Village Jolt--Show Off triumphed in 1:55.4 for trainer Jim Campbell and owner Fashion Farms. Show And Tell will leave from Post 4 in Race 5.

The stakes record for the Sand Tart, 1:53.2, was established by Ginger And Fred in 2008.

In addition to the Sand Tart, the card includes five $20,000 splits of a Pennsylvania Stallion Series stakes event for sophomore pacing fillies.

First-race post time is 6:55 p.m.
