J One Twenty reaches new peak in Niagara Series demolition

J One Twenty (Artspeak) won her 13th race of the harness racing season and set a new mark as she blew away her three-year-old pacing filly rivals in the Niagara Series second leg on a cold and snowy Friday night (Dec. 16) at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

The trip was straightforward – Scott Young pointed the filly to the front, which she attained early and paced panels of :27, :57, and 1:26.3. She fully opened the throttle turning for home and charged home to a five-and-three-quarter length victory in 1:55.3. Queen Of Soul (Bob McClure) out-finished Maddigal (James MacDonald) for place.

J ONE TWENTY REPLAY

J One Twenty has raced 23 times at three after appearing once as a two-year-old. Jerry Sims trains the filly, who has now earned $72,150, with co-breeder John Obrien.

The $30,000 final of the series is scheduled for Monday, Dec. 26 at Woodbine Mohawk Park. The track will continue racing on Saturday, Dec. 17 at 7:00 p.m. EST.
