Shecouldbegood N ($4.30) wasn't just good, she was absolutely great in Buffalo Raceway's featured $16,712 event for the distaff pacers on Wednesday afternoon (April 17).

Making her first start on the campaign at Buffalo Raceway, Shecouldbegood N and driver Drew Monti took early control of the race approaching the opening quarter pole and never looked back in cruising to a resounding 2-1/2-length victory over McVera (James McNeight Jr.) in 1:55.2 over the 'good' track. Miss Rockadali (Jim Morrill Jr.) took the show position.

There was a scramble for the early advantage as McVera and Imprincessgemma A (Billy Davis Jr.) duked it out for supremacy. Once the two settled things on the front end, Shecouldbegood N zoomed right to the top and hit the opening panel in :29.1.

From there, Imprincessgemma A was first over just past the half in :58.3, but that rally fell apart, leaving Shecouldbegood N and McVera alone in a two-horse breakaway by three-quarters in 1:27.1. But that duel evaporated quickly as Shecouldbegood N pulled away from McVera at the top of the lane and strolled to the convincing victory.

Owned by Michael Milazzo and trained by Candace Brandstatter, 11-year old Shecouldbegood N (Well Said-Summer Solstice) earned her fourth win in 10 attempts this season. The victory increased her 2024 earnings to $40,709 and lifetime bankroll to $286,978.

Monti, Morrill Jr., and Davis Jr. all had doubles on the matinee card with Ryan Swift collecting a pair of training victories.

Racing will return on Friday, April 19 with a 10-race program set for 2:30 p.m.
