Favourite Krispy Apple (Jason Bartlett, $3.40) was too good for the rest of the ladies Friday night, winning Yonkers Raceway’s $40,000 Filly and Mare Open Handicap Pace.

Seated an early fifth from an assigned eight-hole, Krispy Apple watched as Cinamony (George Brennan) worked around Sensationalgabby A.

After a :27.2 opening quarter-mile and cheapy :57.2 intermission, it was Krispy Apple moving again. She encountered no resistance in and out of a 1:25.1 three-quarters, taking a two and a quarter-length lead into the lane.

Three lasses across took up the chase, but Krispy Apple finished it off. She defeated Al Raza N (Eric Carlson) by a couple of lengths in 1:53.2. Third went to Cinamony, with Jonsie Jones and Stormunn (Jordan Stratton) settling for the remainder.

For Krispy Apple, a seven-year-old daughter of Western Ideal co-owned by Bamond Racing and Joseph Davino and trained by Jeffrey Bamond Jr., the win was her 11th in 24 seasonal starts. The exacta paid $18.60, with the triple returning $82.
