Sunday Afternoon wins Tuesday evening

Sunday Afternoon (Dali, $9.80) and Eric Davis sat the perfect pocket trip behind the pace setter Got The Gold and won the $12,000 Open Handicap for Mares Tuesday night (Sept. 26) at Rosecroft on a harness racing track labeled good in 1:54.2.

It was the fourth win of the year for the eight-year-old mare. It was the second start in the Bib Roberts Barn after being acquired from the Carmen Auciello stable.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON REPLAY

The race was reduced to a field of five with three scratches, including morning line favorite Always B First, strong closer See Ya Mystery, third in last week’s Open, and Pasta Momma at Post time as she was one of the betting contenders, 5-2 at the time of her State Vet scratch.

Trae Porter won four times in the first seven races on the Tuesday night card, Jonathan Roberts and Justin Walters each won twice.
