Red Star Hottie cruised on the front end to the sixth victory in her last eight starts, capturing Wednesday’s $22,500 Filly & Mare Preferred Handicap Pace at The Meadows
in a sharp 1:51.
After a demanding first quarter in :27, Dave Palone gave the 1-2 favourite a second-panel breather in :29. The five-year-old daughter of As Promised-Whitehorse Fever had little trouble getting home from there, defeating the rallying Personal Ad by 1-1/2 lengths. Save My Shark finished third with a tough first-over trip.
Ron Burke trains Red Star Hottie, who extended her career bankroll to $287,525, for Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC. It was one of five wins on the 14-race card for Palone.
