Frankly My Dear zooms by in feature trot

WASHINGTON, PA, Oct. 13, 2021 — Frankly My Dear found late racing room and blazed past the harness racing leader, Night Flyer K, to capture Wednesday’s feature at The Meadows, a $9,800 Conditioned Trot.

With more than $161,000 in her account, a win in this year’s Arden Downs and a third in the Weiss Series final, it appeared that the 3-year-old daughter of Southwind Frank-Temple Of Athena lay over her rivals; indeed, she was installed as the 4-5 favorite. But she was pinned on the cones until the final turn, when Dave Palone finally was able to show her racetrack.

She then took off and defeated Night Flyer K by 2-3/4 lengths in 1:55.1, matching her career best. Iron Wheel rallied for show.

Ron Burke trains Frankly My Dear for Burke Racing Stable, Knox Services, Weaver Bruscemi LLC and J&T Silva – Purnel & Libby.
