Aided by a :31.1 second-quarter breather, Harness AM fashioned an easy front-end victory in Wednesday’s co-feature at The Meadows, a $10,300 Filly & Mare Conditioned Trot.
Harness AM had to duel through a contested :28.1 opening panel in the slop, but once he crossed over and winning driver Brady Brown slammed on the brakes, the four-year-old daughter of Father Patrick-Noblesse Blue Chip had things her way, scoring in 1:56.3. The rallying Tamar finished second, two lengths back, while the first-over Tuesday Morning raced well for show. It was one of three victories for Brown on the 13-race card.
Tyler Stillings conditions Harness AM, who lifted her lifetime bankroll to $117,775, for Rags To Riches of PA, which enjoyed a three-win day.
In Wednesday’s other co-feature, a $10,300 Filly & Mare Conditioned Pace, Something Reel, a five-year-old daughter of Westwardho Hanover-Im A Reelist, notched her second straight for Dave Palone, trainer Brandon Presto and owner Larry Parlin.
