Another rosy outing for Artistic Meadow

Artistic Meadow rode her good from into another victory on Friday at Grand River Raceway, her seventh in 10 starts this harness racing season.

The Mark McCormack-trained daughter of Artistic Fella slid into fifth from post eight and remained stationary through :27 and :55.1 opening panels. Tyler Moore ordered her off the pylons just passed the half and tipped her three-wide to circle stopping first-over cover.

Artistic Meadow pulled within a length of the leader at three-quarters in 1:25 and cleared shortly after, drawing clear to win by two and a quarter lengths in 1:55.1. Sunshineinmypocket (Austin Sorrie) circled six of seven foes to finish second. Sophist (Brett Macdonald) was third.
