Allowed a second-quarter breather, Jans Luck blazed the last half in 55.3 and cruised to victory in the $25,000 Filly & Mare Preferred pace at The Meadows on Thursday afternoon
.
Dave Palone hustled Jans Luck to the front through an opening quarter of :27 seconds. When the five-year-old daughter of Camluck - Jans Scooter backed the second panel down to 29.3, she had plenty in reserve to turn back the first-over challenge of Osbornes Gypsy. Jans Luck scored in 1:52.1, a length better than Osbornes Gypsy with the pocket-sitting Spring Break third.
Ron Burke trains Jans Luck, who won for the second straight week and for the 23rd time in 2008-2009, for Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi LLC, JJK Stables and M1 Stable. It was one of Palone’s four victories - three for Burke - on the 15-race card.
