Getting Euchred trumps foes for third in a row

Getting Euchred (All Bets Off) got every call for the third straight week as she took the featured harness racing dash at The Raceway at the Western Fair District on Monday (Dec. 4).

Lorne House commanded :28.1 and :58.2 speed from the filly in an uncontested trip to the half. Randomirogeo (Daryl Thiessen) brought pressure as they turned for the backstretch and sparred with the leader through three-quarters in 1:27.2, but Getting Euchred pulled back out down the stretch to secure the win in 1:57. Randomirogeo was second-best. Meilleur Fromage (Garrett Rooney) circled the rest of the field for third.
