Published: May 5, 2021 08:44 pm EDT

Ellieonthemove got back to her winning ways in Buffalo Raceway's $10,200 Class A-Open Handicap Pace for fillies and mares on Wednesday evening (May 5), holding off a late charging Protect Blue Chip by a length in 1:56.

It was the first victory for Ellieonthemove in her last three starts after previously taking three of four races.

With Wonderful World (Jim Morrill Jr.) leading the way to an opening half of :57.1, Ellieonthemove (Kevin Cummings) was first-up on the rim approaching the three-quarter marker. Getting on even terms with Wonderful World hitting the home stretch, Ellieonthemove proved no match for the remaining five ladies. Protect Blue Chip (Billy Davis Jr.) came roaring on the outside late, but ran out of real estate and finished second. Wonderful World and Greenhilldebatable (Shawn McDonough) hit the line together and shared third-place honours.

Owned by Sidney Easton and trained by Anthony Cummings, Ellieonthemove notched her fifth win in 13 appearances this season. The six-year-old Well Said-Ireneonthemove mare has now earned $24,456 in 2021 and $117,754 lifetime. She paid $3.30 to win.

Morrill and Cummings each had driving triples with Davis and Ray Fisher Jr. doubling. Rock Vinci and Christopher Naedele produced a pair of training victories.

Racing will continue on Saturday evening (May 8) with an 11-race program scheduled for 6 p.m.
