"Kisses" Shows No Love in Harrington Open

Stonebridge Kisses and Brandon Givens put together a fierce rally in the stretch to win Tuesday's featured $21,000 Mares Open Pace in 1:54 at Harrington Raceway.

The seven-year-old Artiscape mare got away sixth in the six horse field as Ireneonthemove fought hard for the lead and set fractions of :27.1, :55.3 and 1:24.4, while last week's winner Dance Hall was outside the entire mile.

Meanwhile, Stonebridge Kisses geared up four-wide on the final turn and surged by for the win. Ireneonthemove held second, while Yada Yada Yada took the show money.

For "Kisses," who is owned by Martin Scharf, she has now banked more than $900,000 and nearly $200,000 in 2007.
