Eric Goodell sat back near the rear of a select field of six female pacers in the first 26,000 distaff feature of the meet until reaching the backstretch when he sent the four-year-old Stand Forever bay to the far outside and blitz past the leaders on the way to her fourth straight win for KSJ Stables. VC Atom N closed strongly for Vince Copeland to finish second in front of Chloes Silver Star and Ron Pierce.

Kellytuck Sophie moved three-wide around dueling Lady Mach (Eric Goodell) and Firiel Hanover (Montrell Teague) on the final turn and then held off a fast finishing Keystone Rhythm (Ross Wolfenden) by a long neck in 1:52.4 to win the sub-feature $23,000 Mares Jr. Open Pace. Lady Mach held on for third. Veteran Kellytuck Sophie has now won $72,730 for owners W.B. Brooks, Graham Grace and M&W stables.

Ross Wolfenden moved Donttellmewhattodo into an early lead and never looked back en route to a 1:53 triumph in a $15,000 female pace.
