Surrounded by challengers in the stretch, Hereslooknatyou N dug in late and scored a narrow victory in Wednesday’s (Feb. 17) co-feature at The Meadows, a $9,400 fillies and mares conditioned pace.
Hereslooknatyou N made an opportunistic quarter-pole move to the front when the break of All Day Sunshine opened a path. But her work wasn’t finished, as Amelias Courage A shot the Lightning Lane and Circle The Page loomed large outside off the final turn. The five-year-old daughter of Hes Watching and May Fly found more for Jim Pantaleano and edged Amelias Courage A by a head over a sloppy surface. Circle The Page was a close-up third.
Jason Robinson trains the winner for Kimberly Zabielski.
In Wednesday's other co-feature, a $9,400 fillies and mares conditioned trot, Mary Mag Delene made a successful local debut, rolling to a facile 1:56.4 victory, just a tick off her lifetime best. Dave Palone piloted the six-year-old daughter of Dejarmbro and Marigot Express for Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.
Pantaleano and Palone each collected three wins on the 13-race card.
Live racing at The Meadows continues Thursday (Feb. 18), when the 13-race program features a $12,229.75 carryover in the final-race Super Hi-5. First post is 12:45 p.m.
