Major League N surpasses $300k with Preferred win

Major League N (Gotta Go Cullen) reached $300,000 in career harness racing earnings after capitalizing on a perfect trip to win the Fillies and Mares Preferred Pace on Wednesday (May 24) at The Raceway at the Western Fair District.

After following the speedy Heavens Showgirl A (Tyler Moore) from the second tier, Major League N sat the pocket for Ed Hensley behind a leader setting :28.2 and :57 panels. As they came down the backside, Major League N pulled out and commenced an attack through three-quarters in 1:25.3.

Heavens Showgirl A battled on into the final eighth, but Major League N drew clear late to score in the featured event by a length in 1:55.1.

Exotic Dragon (Travis Cullen) followed the leader on the outside and took second. Randomirogeo (Travis Henry) finished third.
