Five straight wins for Silly But Serious

WASHINGTON, PA, May 31, 2023 — Silly But Serious (Captaintreacherous-I Need Hotstuff) used an alert start and a well-timed, first-over move to extend her harness racing winning streak to five in Wednesday’s (May 31) feature at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $12,500 Filly & Mare Claiming Handicap Pace.

Silly But Serious dropped in fourth from post 7 for Dave Palone but was out near the half to challenge the leader, Twin B Hello. The 6-year-old mare grabbed the point in a heartbeat and drew off to triumph by 2-1/4 lengths in 1:52.4. One Eyed Wanda and Colorful Sky completed the ticket.

Mike Palone trains Silly But Serious, who lifted her career bankroll to $149,156, for Mitchell Fini.

Mike Wilder collected four wins and Ronnie Wrenn, Jr. three on the 12-race card.
