Hambo Oaks Champ Resurfaces And Romps
Sophomore trotting fillies invaded Yonkers Raceway on Tuesday night as the half-mile oval hosted the $238,945 New York Sire Stakes New Rochelle Trot.
Five divisions led the 13-race card, with Hambletonian Oaks and Hudson Trot victress Creamy Mimi more than ready for her close-up.
With trainer Trond Smedshammer doing the honours, the daughter of Conway Hall made an early and easy lead in the final split. From there, the odds-on choice strolled through unpressured intervals of :30:1, :59.4 and 1:29.1.
Creamy Mimi widened to win by five lengths at the wire, which she found in a comfy 1:58.2. Absolute Charmer was a distant bridesmaid at 24-1, with Epangeline third.
The talented filly, co-owned by Al Libfeld and Marvin Katz, notched her third consecutive victory and sixth in 10 seasonal starts.
Tuesday night's other NYSS events went to:
Mystical Starlight - 1:59.3
Parcc Side - 2:00.3
Its Coast Time - 2:00.4
Credit Victory - 2:01.1
