Game Of Shadows rolls to third straight

WASHINGTON, PA, Jan. 19, 2022 — Hammered down to 1-9, Game Of Shadows made that money look mighty smart as she rolled to her third straight harness racing victory in Wednesday’s feature at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $12,100 Filly & Mare Conditioned Pace.

Once Game Of Shadows seized the lead from post 4, pocketed challenger Dream Dancing and enjoyed a 29,2 second-quarter breather from Hunter Myers, the race for win essentially was over.

The 4-year-old daughter of Shadow Play-Cheyenne Ava prevailed in 1:52.4, a length better than Dream Dancing, while Tonianne rallied wide for show.

Paul Corey trains the winner, who lifted her lifetime bankroll to $148,204, for Kenneth Ashba.
