Jody (Betterthancheddar) went wire to wire in the harness racing Mares Winners Over/ Select Pace at Bally’s Dover on Wednesday night (Jan. 31).
Jody and driver Allan Davis were the aggressors as they launched off the wings of the starting gate, pacing to the quarter pole. That strategy forced Shield Maiden to settle in the pocket. Majorca N, who left from post 8, retreated to the four path racing to the quarter.
Jody was on a mission as she cut out fractions of 27.2 to the quarter. The half was blitzed in 56.1, a 28.4 quarter.
Disturbed Hanover attacked 1st over past the half. The 9/5 betting favorite Majorca N was carried 2nd over on the rim and Twin Delight was towed into a 3rd over position
Jody accelerated, pacing to the three quarters in 1:24.1 a 28 flat quarter. Majorca N was breathing fire and vacated her 2nd over position circling three wide.into the lane. Shield Maiden watched all the action from the pocket and was ready to strike. Jody remained strong in the stretch and coasted to a two and a half length victory in 1:52.3. She paid $9.40 for the win.
