Cleopatra As (Lionhunter) scored in gate to wire fashion in the $32,000 Richard Brandt Trot harness racing final at Eldorado Scioto Downs on Wednesday (June 29).

The 4-year-old was not intimidated by her nine-hole post position. Tony Hall gassed her from the gate, setting fractions in :28, :57.4, and 1:26.4. Cleopatra As tripped the wire in 1:57 for a new lifetime mark. Marge At Large finished second while Lady Ruth was third.

CLEOPATRA AS REPLAY

2022 is proving to be the year for Cleopatra As. The mare never started as a 2-year-old and only raced three times as a sophomore. Despite a slow beginning to her career, Cleopatra As now boasts two wins, five seconds, and two thirds in 10 seasonal starts. She has bankrolled over $43,000 this year alone. Annette Lorentzon trains Cleopatra As for Acl Stuteri Ab.

Live racing returns Thursday at Eldorado Scioto Downs with 16 races scheduled. First post is 3:15PM. For more information on the facility and live racing season, visit the Eldorado Scioto Downs website.
