'Peelers' To Headline Batavia Action

Published: September 7, 2010 10:22 am EDT

The unbeaten freshman pacing filly See You At Peelers will put her eight-race winning streak on the line when she takes on seven other rivals in a $44,820 New York Sire Stakes event on Wednesday, September 8 at Batavia Downs. More than $144,000 in NYSS purses will be offered

.

Once again, trainer Jimmy Takter will hand the lines over to Jim Morrill, Jr., who had six winners at Batavia this past Saturday night. The bay daughter of Bettors Delight--West Side Glory is owned by the partnership of Christina Takter and John and Jim Fielding.

With earnings in excess of $119,000 and a 1:51.3 lifetime mark (a Vernon Downs track record), See You At Peelers will be gunning for Paulas Best's current 1:55 Batavia record, set in 2006.

Carded as Race 11, See You At Peelers has been installed as the 3-5 morning line favourite. She’ll start from Post 3.

The well named My Girls A Star, racing for former Batavia regular Ray Schnittker, looks like a formidable foe in the first $44,020 NYSS dash of the evening, carded as Race 2. She’ll start from the rail.

In eight starts this season, the Art Major--Ifuwantitcumngetit filly has six winner's circle visits to her credit with earnings of more than $98,000. She also took her mark at Vernon by winning in 1:52.2.

First-race post time is 6:40 p.m. Racing programs can be downloaded free of charge at bataviadownscasino.com.
