Longshot Personal Ad rode her first-over cover beautifully as she captured Friday’s $22,500 Filly & Mare Preferred Not Listed/Preferred Handicap Pace

.

Dismissed at 12-1, Personal Ad was pacing in fifth when Aaron Merriman tipped her off the pylons, where she picked up the live cover of Summer Hope. While Summer Hope flickered in the lane, Personal Ad powered on to score in 1:55 over a track listed “good.” Tremor Hanover finished second, 2-3/4 lengths back, with Dont Blame Her a rallying third.

Kent Sherman trains Personal Ad, a five-year-old daughter of Artiscape-Looknforagirllikeu, who now boasts $230,109 in career earnings, for Korans Stables Inc. of Macedonia, Ohio.

Dave Palone drove six winners — four for trainer Ron Burke — while Doug Snyder and Merriman each fashioned a triple on the 15-race card.
