The second leg of the New Jersey Sires Stakes featuring three-year-old trotting fillies highlighted Thursday’s 10-race program at the Meadowlands

, with three-divisions on tap.

Unefoisdansmavie survived a first-over trip to take home top prize in her $20,200 split in a career-best clocking of 1:56 for driver Tim Tetrick and trainer Peter Kleinhans. The daughter of Revenue S-Peace To The World held on to win by a neck over IPO Blue Chip. Third prize went to Religulous.

Unraced as a rookie, the sophomore notched her third lifetime win from just eight starts for the New Jersey partnership of P Kleinhans Racing Inc and AJKS Racing. The youngster has banked just over $30,000 to date.

Boinga parked to the quarter pole in :26.4 before being allowed to clear, and once she crossed down to the rail it was game over for the competition. David Miller rolled the Windsongs Legacy-Melody Of Love miss through middle splits of :56 and 1:26.3 before sprinting home in :27.4 to seal the deal in a career-best clocking of 1:54.2. Muscle Amour was more than two lengths in arrears, and it four lengths to third-place finisher Quite Possible.

Trained by Brian Roland, the filly picked up her fourth win of the 2010 campaign while pushing her lifetime earnings over $108,000 with the victory. The five-time winner is owned by Anthony & Carol Risi of Christiana, PA and Bernard M O’Brien of Lecanto, FL.

Bar Slide turned out to be the fastest divisional winner thanks to her 1:54.2 tour of the New Jersey oval for the tandem of driver John Campbell and trainer Joe Holloway. The daughter of Yankee Glide-Marla Bar parked to the quarter pole in :27.2 before finding her way to the motor. She then supplied middle fractions of :56.3 and 1:26.3 before roaring home in :27.4 to post the 1:54.2 decision. Keystone Tabby rallied late to get be lapped-on to the winner. Power Of Motion was a distant third.

Owned by Fredericka Caldwell of Georgetown, KY and Bluestone Farms LLC of Hopewell, NJ, Bar Slide notched her first win of the season and the fourth of her career. She has banked more than $90,000 to date.

The $200,000 New Jersey Sire Stakes Championship for three-year-old fillies is Saturday, June 12.
