Sharp Fillies To Contest 'Great Lady' Elims

Published: August 19, 2008 05:25 pm EDT

A pair of full, contentious-looking Shes A Great Lady eliminations for juvenile pacing fillies look to provide fireworks alongside the Metro Pace elims this Saturday night at Mohawk Racetrack.

The elims, carded as Races 6 and 7, house more than enough speedy fillies.

No less than four fillies stand out somewhat in the first elimination.

Bay I am A Fool lass In The Game has drawn the rail in the first elim and trainer Richard 'Nifty' Norman has listed John Campbell to be in the bike. The filly is unbeaten in three career starts with her most recent win coming in a division of the Eternal Camnation Stakes.

Bay Artiscape filly Shes A Fan has drawn Post 3 for trainer Carl Jamieson and pilot Jody Jamieson. Shes A Fan started her career with a four-race win streak, including wins in legs of the Whenuwishuponastar Pacing Series, but has tasted defeat her last two times out.

Trained by Erv Miller and to be driven by Andy Miller, brown Western Hanover filly Treasure Keeper has drawn Post 5. The filly has yet to hit the board in three career starts, but did win a qualifier in 1:53.4 over Pocono Downs on August 6.

Conditioned by Bob McIntosh and to be steered by Steve Condren, West Of L A has drawn Post 7. The bay Western Hanover lass has finished no worse than second in four starts, taking her mark over Mohawk in 1:54.2.

Although Cole Muffler bay Right Right doesn't show the swiftest of marks, the filly could be a big contender in the second elim. Trainer by Erv Miller and to be steered by Andy Miller, Right Right has paced a couple of miles in 1:52 and change recently, even if her mark is a 1:56 effort over the one-mile Hawthorne Raceway course. Right Right will start from Post 4.

Conditioned by Rod Boyd, who has listed Jody Jamieson to navigate, Western Terror filly Terroronthebeach has drawn Post 5. The brown lass has won two of three starts, including a 1:54.3 victory in a division of the Eternal Camnation Stakes.

Whenuwishuponastar Pacing Series winner Backstreet Sweetie has drawn Post 8 for trainer John Pentland and driver Mike Saftic. Having won two of three races and always hit the board, the filly hasn't raced since the Whenuwishuponastar final, as she was scratched sick out of a Robert Stewart Stakes division.
