Three Times Bettor, fresh off impressive efforts in the Kentucky Sire Stakes (KYSS) spring series final and the first leg of the summer series in her last two starts, will put an eight-race win streak on the line in the second round of the current KYSS series for four-year-old pacing mares on Monday, June 1 at Oak Grove Racing, Gaming & Hotel.

The daughter of Bettors Delight-Three Times A Lady has been perfect in four starts this season, but her win streak dates to Oct. 13, 2025, when she kicked off a sweep of the KYSS fall series for three-year-olds at Cumberland Run. Thaddeus Wier's mare tied a track record at Oak Grove on May 16 with a 1:48.3 win in the four-year-old-mare spring final, then came back nine days later with a 1:49.4 effort in the summer opener. With usual driver Dexter Dunn away on Monday, Andy McCarthy has been tabbed by trainer Brett Pelling to drive the mare, a 13-time winner in 21 starts. She will leave from the rail as the 2-5 morning-line favourite in the $50,000 USD contest.

The eighth-race field also features a trio of Ron Burke trainees: spring series runner-up Aintnothingucando (PP3, Yannick Gingras, 4-1), who was also second in opening-round action, Rose (PP2, Ronnie Wrenn Jr., 9-2), who has bounced back from a winless sophomore season with four wins in eight starts thus far at four, and Champagne Room (PP4, Tim Tetrick, 10-1), runner-up to Three Times Bettor in the Cumberland Run series final last fall.

A couple of other spring champions will look to extend current streaks on the card. Gimpanzee Dancer looks for his fourth straight success after a resounding 5-3/4-length, 1:51.3 first-round win last week; he will start from the inside for driver Andy McCarthy and trainer Chris Beaver in the first of two sections for four-year-old trotting males, carded as Race 1. Two races later, the versatile Harrisburg Heist, with Ronnie Wrenn Jr. aboard for Burke, will take on six rivals looking to end his current streak at three in the first of two splits for four-year-old pacing males.

The four-year-old trotting mares will also compete in a single dash of KYSS on Monday, with a field of six set to clash in Race 11 on the 14-race card. Burke pupil Winnpanzee (PP1, Yannick Gingras, 2-1) will look to rebound from a runner-up finish in the opening prelim behind R Dutchess (PP5, Tim Tetrick, 5-2), who worked a perfect pocket trip to win the kickoff leg in 1:52.4. The field of six also includes the longshot winner of the spring series final Aperfect Annie (PP6, Todd McCarthy, 7-2) as well as last season's Elegantimage Stakes winner Lasting Dream (PP2, Daniel Dube, 4-1), who will make her second start of the season. Completing the group is Grand Reserve (PP3, Andy McCarthy, 12-1), a 2025 Bluegrass Stakes winner.

The card also features a $30,000 USD Open Handicap Pace in Race 4 and a United States Harness Driving Club event. On the wagering front, a pair of 20-cent Pick 5s, covering Races 1-5 and Races 6-10, and a $1 Pick 4 on the last four races of the card, all feature a player-friendly 15 per cent takeout.

Oak Grove hosts live harness racing on Monday and Tuesday afternoons through mid-July with a daily first-race post time of 1:10 p.m. (CDT).
