Four-year-old trotting mares blew up the toteboard at Miami Valley on Tuesday (March 9) in the $25,000 championship leg of the Ray Paver Sr. Memorial Series. Miss Smead was the first to reach the wire in 1:55.3. The daughter of Guccio was followed across the line by fellow four-year-old mares Susie D, Swan Fashion, Just For Us and Deswanslittlelorie. The series was open to trotters of either sex that were non-winners of four races or $40,000 lifetime at the nomination deadline. Driver Don Eash also owns and trains Miss Smead, who was winning for the third time in 2021 and increased her career earnings to $62,284. Miss Smead returned a $17 win mutual and combined with Susie D kicked back a $189.80 exacta. Swan Fashion completed a 50-cent trifecta worth $424.05; while a 10-cent superfecta with Just For Us paid a whopping $409.68.
