Trainer Dustin Jones' homebred Fan Hanover eligible Nat A Virgin set a new Canadian season's record for three-year-old pacing fillies with a 1:50.3 triumph on Friday night at Mohawk Racetrack.

After breaking stride in her first two starts of the year, Nat A Virgin put the pieces together on Friday and lowered the 2014 national division record by more than one full second in an $18,000 conditioned pace. The time also matched the fastest mile by any female pacer this season, which nine-year-old Voelz Hanover set in a top class Preferred event on May 9 at Woodbine Racetrack.

Nat A Virgin, with driver Rick Zeron aboard, was the first to get a call in the evening's fifth race as she sprinted across the track from post seven and cleared to command before the first turn. She race by the quarter pole in :27.1 before 2-5 favourite Major Dancer swept up from fourth to take over during the second panel. The new leader cleared at the half in :55.3 and continued to lead past three-quarters in 1:23.3, but Nat A Virgin blew by in the stretch, kicking home in :26.3.

The 9-5 second choice paid $5.90 to win. Major Dancer finished nearly three lengths behind in second while Wildcat Beauty rounded out the top three finishers seven and a half lengths back.

Nat A Virgin won three of her eight freshman starts, including a leg of the Indiana Sire Stakes, and banked over $50,000 in purses. The Always A Virgin-Nat A Tat Tat filly is owned and bred by Dustin Jones Stables Inc. of Waterdown, Ont. and William Jones of Lexington, Kentucky.
