Jett Propelled flies in DSBF prelim

DOVER, Del. — Jett Propelled (Roddy’s Bags Again-Jett Away) lived up to 1-20 billing in the second of two $20,000 first-round preliminary harness racing divisions of the Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund (DSBF) series for 3-year-old pacing fillies at Bally’s Dover, extending her win streak to three with a 1:55.3 score on Wednesday (Dec. 4).

In line to Jason Thompson, the filly seated 22-1 third choice Bad Nella Monella (driven by Montrell Teague) in the pocket through a :27 first quarter before backing the tempo down dramatically through a :58 half. After picking up the pace to three-quarters in 1:26.2 under mild first-over pressure from American Marvel (Tony Morgan), Jett Propelled sped away to defeat Bad Nella Monella by 3-1/4 lengths. Slipinsidewayz (Victor Kirby) made a mild late bid to narrowly miss the runner-up spot.

JETT PROPELLED REPLAY

Jett Propelled, now a 10-time winner with $186,609 in career earnings, competes as a homebred for owner-trainer Robert Shahan. She paid $2.10 to win.

In the first division, Amelia Maximus (Emeritus Maximus-Ellen’s Beach Babe) and driver Barton Dalious brushed to the fore after Smalltown Bad Girl (Tim Tetrick) clicked off a :28.1 first quarter, and then rated middle splits of :59.2 and 1:28.2 before keeping her pocket rival a nose at bay for a 1:57.3 score. Makemymommaproud (Allan Davis) finished third, 3-1/2 lengths behind.

AMELIA MAXIMUS REPLAY

Garey Jump trains Amelia Maximus, a filly with four career wins and $54,529 in the bank, for owner-breeder Katsiaryna Vaitsiakhovich-Jump. She paid $5.00 to win as the 3-2 favorite.

Three-year-old male pacers will kick off their DSBF series on at Bally’s Dover with a trio of $20,000 first-round splits: one conducted as a non-wagering event at 4:10 p.m. EST and the other two at the top of a 15-race pari-mutuel card due to commence at 4:30 p.m.
