Columbus, Ohio – Allnight Micki (Downbytheseaside) didn’t disappoint her backers as the 4-5 favorite in the $30,000 Dr. Davis Pace harness racing final on Wednesday (July 27) at Eldorado Scioto Downs.
Leaving from post four, Allnight Micki (Aaron Merriman) charged out of the gate. Confident after two leg wins in the conditioned miniseries for fillies staked to the Buckeye Stallion Series, Allnight Micki secured this victory in wire-to-wire fashion.
The 3-year-old filly set fractions in :27, :56.2, and 1:23.2 before tripping the finish in 1:51.2. Allnight Micki bested Parklane Unique (Trevor Smith) by a neck with Love Me Hill (Brett Miller) third.
After spending her 2-year-old year on the Ohio Sires Stakes level, Allnight Micki dropped down to mid-tier racing for 2022. With eight wins on the season, the class move is proving to be just what she needed.
ALLNIGHT MICKI REPLAY
Trained by Tim Twaddle, the sophomore filly has now earned over $131,000 in her racing career and lowered her mark by five seconds. Allnight Micki is owned in partnership by Twaddle and Micki Rae Stables. She now has 9 career wins, 5 seconds and 3 third place finishes in her career.
