Joey zipped to the lead from post 5 and thwarted a pair of late challenges to capture Friday’s $17,600 Open Handicap Trot at The Meadows.
Hammered down to 1-2 in the wagering, Joey was threatened inside and outside in the stretch. But the six-year-old Yankee Glide-Jodies Jayme gelding responded for Brian Zendt, holding off the Lightning Lane charge of the pocket-sitting Mind Yown Business in 1:55 over a sloppy surface. Rising MVP. Who loomed menacingly outside, settled for show.
Leslie Zendt conditions Joey, who extended his lifetime bankroll to $135,133, and owns with Bill Zendt.
Dave Palone and Mike Wilder each collected three wins on the 13-race card.
All Day Sunshine wrested the early lead from Amelias Courage A, then thwarted her late challenge to capture Thursday’s (May 6) feature at The Meadows, a $10,500 fillies and mares conditioned pace.
All Day Sunshine easily repelled the first-over bid of Dorothys Legacy, but Amelias Courage A had the entire Lightning Lane to pick her up. The four-year-old daughter of Sunshine Beach and Mustang Kensley responded to the urging of Mike Wilder and held off Amelias Courage A by a neck in 1:51.4, a tick off her lifetime mark. The game Dorothys Legacy earned show.
Paul Corey trains All Day Sunshine, who triumphed for the fifth time this year and lifted her lifetime bankroll to $189,370, for Kenneth Ashba.
