WASHINGTON, PA, Oct. 12, 2021 — Parked every step, Something Reel nevertheless had enough gas and guts to hold off five late challengers and capture Tuesday’s harness racing feature at The Meadows, a $12,000 Filly & Mare Conditioned Pace.
Something Reel left from post 8 but couldn’t make the early lead or find a seat for driver Dave Palone.
When she turned for home, it appeared as if the 5-year-old daughter of Westwardho Hanover-I’m A Realist would be engulfed, but she hung tough, edging Hillbilly Kisses by a head in 1:53.2, with All Day Sunshine third.
Brandon Presto trains Something Real, who now boasts a career bankroll of $179,010, for Larry Parlin.

Ronnie Wrenn, Jr. and trainer Ron Burke each collected four wins on the 13-race card while Aaron Merriman and Palone each enjoyed a triple.
Live racing at The Meadows continues Wednesday when the 12-race program features a $30,120.35 carryover in the final-race Super Hi-5. First post is 12:45 PM.
