Chris Lems put the pedal to the metal early with Its A Miracle in Thursday’s $9,500 Fillies & Mares Open Pace, and the Jordan Hope trainee rolled to an impressive win in the featured affair.
Its A Miracle whacked out fractions of :25.4, :54.3 and 1:23.1 before using a :28 closing quarter to win by 1-1/2 lengths over race favourite Tataria in 1:51.1. Taking home the show dough in the five-horse tilt was Better Said.
Victor Finocchiaro of Chittenango, NY owns the seven-year-old daughter of Always A Virgin-Iva Miracle who now owns an 8-2-4 record from 27 trips to the track this year. The 30-time winner is closing in on $380,000 in lifetime earnings.
