Unbeaten Princess Jackie Wins PASS Division At Meadows

Shes A Shoe In was second to Princess Jackie in the career debut for both fillies. Saturday, she went one better, winning the other $108,765 PASS division in 1:57.2 for driver Mark MacDonald. Shes A Shoe In took her time making the lead from the eight hole. Once she crossed over near the half, Shes A Shoe In brushed off the mild challenge of Divine Thing and downed her by 2-3/4 lengths. Lone Wolf Blaire earned show.
Ray Schnittker, trains the daughter 0f Greenshoe-Casaubon — a $50,000 yearling acquisition — and shares ownership with Grozcona Racing Stable LLC. Shes A Shoe In shows $59,177 in career earnings.
