Mission Brief won her qualifier
today in 1:56.2. |
Mission Brief back on track
In her second qualifier of the season, world champion 3-year-old filly Mission Brief trotted a flat 1:56.2 mile Saturday morning at Meadowlands Racetrack, highlighting a star-studded group of qualifiers.
"Saturday mornings with Myron," known to most as Meadowlands qualifiers, took place May 9 under overcast skies with temperatures in the 60s.
Mission Brief got back on track with a controlled 1:56.2 win, last quarter in 28.1, edging away on her own from Speak To Me for Yannick Gingras. The New Jersey Sires Stakes begin next Friday and would provide a comfortable starting point for the world champion daughter of Muscle Hill should trainer Ron Burke and his partners Our Horse Cents Stable, J&T; Silva and Weaver Bruscemi choose that route.
Race 7 was the first pacing event of the day and contained several Meadowlands Pace eligibles. Lyons Levi Lewis led all the way and held off the late rushing Penji Hanover in 1:52 for Gingras with ASAP Hanover a solid third. Winter book Pace choice Artspeak while well back early behind a gapper, was absolutely airborne late, pacing in 1:53.4 with a 26.4 final panel. Ron Burke trains the Well Said colt for Joshph Lyons-Mound.
Not to be outdone, In The Arsenal made his Meadowlands Pace case with an easy 1:53.2, 26.3 final panel breeze for Sears. Revenge Shark closed up to be second and National Seelster third. The winner is trained by Kelvin Harrison for White Birch Farms and In The Arsenal Racing.
Opulent Yankee opened the day a winner in 1:54.2 with his owner (and track owner) Jeff Gural and wife Paula in attendance, joining the usual collection of observers and horseplayers watching from the VIP suites. The 4-year-old gelded son of Muscles Yankee tracked Handover Belle before shifting out a lane and going by with no encouragement from driver Andy Miller.
By And By Hanover, a Muscle Massive filly from Brown Velvet trained and driven by Ake Svanstedt, completed the double for Gural’s Little E LLC, with a 1:59.2 win in the second race, holding sway over a pair of Antonacci trotters, Lindy On The Rocks and Moni From Heaven.
Race three was an easy win for Show Biz Hall, a Deweycheatumnhowe sophomore in 1:56.1 for Scott Zeron. Lightly raced at 2 with a 1:55 record at The Red Mile, the colt sashayed home in 27.4 in hand to the delight of trainer Tony Alagna and his eponymous ownership group.

In The Arsenal won his qualifier in 1:53.2 for driver Brian Sears. |
Hambo eligible Guess Who’s Back made a strong statement after the break with an effortless 1:53.3 win with Brian Sears aboard. Something of an enigma last season with flashes of brilliance compromised by equally frustrating inconsistency, the Muscles Yankee colt looked rock solid in his second outing for trainer Nik Drennan and owners J. Davino, B. Shackman, TLP Stable and J&T; Silva.
Older horses made up Race 9 and Great Vintage got up despite a very wide drift through a 26 flat
last quarter to win over pacesetting Lyonssomewhere, the mile in 1:51. Gingras drove the old boy for Takter, et al. Rockeyed Optimist was a comfortable third. A few of these 4-year-olds are getting some work in anticipation of the upcoming Graduate Series opening leg at Tioga Downs on Memorial Day, May 25.
Sophomore filly pacer Better Said won for Tetrick, Toscano and Brittany Farms in 1:53.3 from just off the pace picking off Luck Be A Lindy through a 27 flat final panel.
Sassa Hanover was vicious in her second qualifier, riding a pocket through slow numbers, then sprinting home a widening winner into a 26.2 final quarter with Gingras driving for Burke, Panhellenic Stable, Weaver Bruscemi and Larry Karr. Hollyrocker and Rock Her World followed her home. The final time was 1:52.1.
We wrapped with Witch Dali holding sway over Sandbetweenurtoes and Beach Story in 1:53.2 with Tetrick aboard for Alagna Racing and Brad Grant.
