Win Missy B, driven by trainer Charlie Norris, made her way back to the winner’s circle on Sunday night at Tioga Downs in a division of the New York Sire Stakes for three-year-old filly trotters.

Fresh off of her second place finish to world champion Check Me Out in the Zweig at Vernon Downs, Win Missy B got right back to business in the NYSS.

Leaving from post position number one in a field of seven, Win Missy B got away third and as the field headed towards the :27.4 quarter mark and quickly moved to the outside for the retake. From there, Norris guided Win Missy B through fractions of :56.3 and 1:24.4. Around the final turn it looked as though Win Missy B was coming back to the field as Kristins Victory (Steve Smith) was quickly gaining ground. Through the stretch, Norris reached up and kept Win Missy B’s mind on business and was able to hold off the late challenger in 1:54.4.

“She seemed to think that the race was over or something part way through the stretch there so I had to keep her mind on business and work on her a little bit,” said Norris in the winner’s circle. “Every guy dreams of having a horse like this, she might not win all the time, but she shows up and gives 100 per cent every week.

"We will head to Yonkers next in the NYSS and then she will be in Lexington and the Breeders Crown later this year,” he added.

Also capturing divisions of the NYSS on Sunday night were Fortunista (Mike Merton) in 1:55.4 and Whimzical Britt (Stephane Bouchard) in 1:56.1.

Tioga Downs continues live racing on Monday, September 3 with a post time of 1:30 p.m. featuring the $322,716 Cane Pace and the $100,000 Shady Daisy.
