Harrington Open To San Fran Lady N
San Fran Lady N notched her eighth win of the season Tuesday with a 1:52.2 victory in the featured $12,500 Mares Open II at Harrington Raceway.
San Fran Lady N, who prevailed last week in 1:53.1, set the pace from her rail post position with fractions of :27, :56.2 and 1:24.3 as Hit By Lightning pursued first over with Springforth sitting in the pocket throughout. In mid-stretch Springforth battled San Fran Lady N and had a narrow lead in deep stretch before the latter resurged to prevail by a nose.
Trained by Steve Leblanc, San Fran Lady is owned by Leblanc Racing, William Lutz, Jr., and Count De Money Stable. Ross Wolfenden mapped out the winning trip for San Fran Lady N, who paid $3.60 to her backers.
For the second straight night, a driver took both halves of the daily double.
On Monday night, it was Tony Morgan, this time it was Allan Davis, who piloted Outrageous Delight N ($13) and Driven by Destiny ($3.40) as part of a five win night for the 39-year-old driver. Victor Kirby had three wins on the program.
