Jeffery P Roars To Meadows Win

Published: January 13, 2021 05:49 pm EST

Jeffery P swung wide off excessive cover through the final turn and roared through the lane to capture Wednesday’s (Jan. 13) $16,200 Open Handicap Trot at The Meadows.

Jeffery P raced third-over down the backside, cover that he probably didn’t need because it forced him well wide in the stretch. But he had a ton of trot for Dave Palone and sailed past the pack to triumph in 1:54.4, three-quarters of a length better than his rallying stablemate, Ladys Dude. Jessiejesorjessica completed the ticket.

Ron Burke trains Jeffery P, a six-year-old Full Count-Betty Jean gelding who lifted his career bankroll to $195,523, for Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi LLC and Phillip Collura.

Palone collected three wins on the 13-race card, including a pair for Burke.

Live racing at The Meadows continues Thursday (Jan. 14), when the 13-race program features a $4,679.25 carryover in the final-race Super Hi-5. First post is 12:45 p.m.
