Game Of Shadows threw down a :55 back half en route to a convincing victory in Wednesday’s $16,000 Filly & Mare Open Handicap Pace at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows.

After giving Game Of Shadows a :29.4 second-quarter breather, Hunter Myers unleashed her. The four-year-old daughter of Shadow Play-Cheyenne Ava responded by pouring it on, scoring in 1:51.4 to match her lifetime mark. The pocket-sitting Tonianne was second, 1-3/4 lengths back, while Ellasen shot the Lightning Lane for show.

Paul Corey trains Game Of Shadows, who now has banked $224,074, for Kenneth Ashba.

Aaron Merriman piloted a pair of winners on the 11-race card.

Live racing at The Meadows continues Thursday when the 11-race program features a pair of carryovers: $1,112.45 in the Jackpot Pick 5 (race four), $4,704.85 in the final-race Super Hi-5. First post is 12:45 p.m.
