Jo Ann Looney King's Purrfect Bags ($2.20, Victor Kirby) won the featured $16,000 Mares Open Tuesday at Harrington Raceway for her first win since last October.
The Roddys Bags Again four-year-old mare left alertly from post position four and never looked back in her wire-to-wire 1:52.2 win over Dublin Rose and Hidden Land for her owner/trainer.
It was the 18th career win in 27 lifetime starts for Purrfect Bags, whose lifetime earnings surpassed $395,000. She was recently third versus some of the top mares in the country in the $100,000 Chip Noble Pace at Ohio's Miami Valley Raceway on May 8.
The win was one of three on the program for Kirby, who joined Ross Wolfenden with hat tricks on the card.
