Ben Stafford and Winbak Farm’s Badlands Jenna and Joann Looney-King’s Sarah Barracuda won their respective $20,000 Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund (DSBF) divisional eliminations for 3-year-old pacing fillies Tuesday at Harrington Raceway
Badlands Jenna, a daughter of Badlands Hanover, continued her dominance of the DSBF fillies with a 1:56.1 triumph over Winsmith Jess and What Rusty. Ben Stafford, Jr. mapped out the winning trip for the filly who posted her 15th win in 20 career starts for trainer Ben Stafford.
Meanwhile, 1-to-9 favourite Perec crossed the wire first in her division but was placed second for interference approaching three-quarters, giving the win to 33-1 shot Sarah Barracuda and driver Tony Morgan. Perec (Corey Callahan) made a brief rough-gaited stint that impeded the progress of pocket-sitter Sarah Barracuda momentarily, and caused the disqualification. Perec was placed second, while Stash the Cash was third. Sarah Barracuda is a daughter of Three Olives and is trained by Jim King, Jr.
In the overnight feature, KSJ Stable’s Perfect M Forever and driver Corey Callahan captured the $18,600 Mares Open. In 1:53. It was her second straight win for trainer Josh Green.
Driver Ross Wolfenden had four winners on the program.
