Meadows Repeat For Set Me Up

Published: May 16, 2016 04:37 pm EDT

Set Me Up followed live cover into the final turn, then blazed through the lane to capture Monday’s $22,500 Filly & Mare Preferred Handicap Pace, which was her second straight victory at the Meadows.

A longtime top performer at the Meadows, Set Me Up dropped into a conditioned event to collect last week’s win.

She was sharp in the top distaff pace Monday. She followed the first-over cover of Coffee Addict before Dave Palone sent her wide through the stretch.

She prevailed in 1:51.4 and edged the rallying Spreester by a nose. Medusa shot the Lightning Lane for show.

Ron Burke trains Set Me Up, a seven-year-old daughter of Shark Gesture-Moccasin Flight, who now boasts $435,255 in career earnings for Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.
