Meadows Preferred To Coffee Addict

Published: February 1, 2016 08:23 pm EST

Coffee Addict outdueled Medusa in the stretch to score a narrow victory in Monday’s $22,500 Filly & Mare Not Listed Preferred/Preferred Handicap Pace at The Meadows.

Hammered down to 1-2, Coffee Addict retook the lead for Jim Pantaleano past the quarter and enjoyed a much-needed :29.1 second-panel breather. That served her well late, when she was able to hold off the first-over Medusa by a nose in 1:52.4. Early leader Tipitina saved show.

Norm Parker trains Coffee Addict, a six-year-old daughter of Dragon Again-Kahlua Queen who now boasts $452,529 in career earnings, for James Clarke, Sr. and Andrew Altobelli.

Dave Palone piloted four winners and Eric Goodell three on the 15-race card.
