New tactics fruitful for Tuesday Morning

WASHINGTON, PA, Aug. 12, 2021 — Heretofore a confirmed closer, Tuesday Morning unveiled a new style Wednesday at The Meadows when she quarter-poled to the top and captured the day’s harness racing co-feature, a $10,300 Filly & Mare Conditioned Trot.

Tuesday Morning was away fourth from the rail but was on the move early for Dan Rawlings. The 5-year-old daughter of Explosive Matter-Taboo Yankee easily thwarted the first-over challenge of Delovely Hall and held off the Lightning Lane thrust of DP Rocket, downing her by 3/4 lengths in 1:55.2. Gimme Shelter completed the ticket.

TUESDAY MORNING REPLAY

Ray Romanetti trains Tuesday Morning and owns with Lori Romanetti and Bernadette Luketich. Something Reel and Swizzle Hanover took Wednesday’s other co-features.

Mike Wilder piloted four winners, including a pair for trainer Dan Altmeyer, on the 13-race card.

Live racing at The Meadows continues Thursday when the 12-race program features a $4,343.37 carryover in the final-race Super Hi-5. First post is 12:45 PM.
