Check Me Out Against Aged Foes Friday

World Champion Check Me Out will come to Tioga Downs on Friday night, which will feature an undercard containing three divisions of the New York Sire Stakes for two-year-old trotting fillies.

Fresh off of her convincing 1:51.3 World Record performance turned in at Pocono Downs, Check Me Out will make her first start against aged trotters in Friday night’s $18,000 Open Trot. Nine horses entered and Check Me Out did not fare so well in the draw, as she has drawn Post 9 for Friday night’s eighth race. Check Me Out’s regular pilot, Tim Tetrick, will be on hand to do the driving for trainer and co-owner Ray Schnittker.

Also highlighting the Friday night card will be three divisions of NYSS for two-year old trotting fillies.

Tioga Downs will wrap up its 2012 season of live racing this weekend with action on Friday, September 14 and Saturday, September 15. Friday’s first-race post time is set for 6:50 p.m., while Saturday night racing will get underway at 6:00 p.m.
