SS Superstar keeps local streak alive

SS Superstar (So Surreal) kept her local winning streak alive on Tuesday at Saratoga Casino Hotel when the Larry Stalbaum trained and driven four year old parlayed her pocket ride to harness racing victory in the feature for the ladies.

SS Superstar won five consecutive races at the Spa before a two-race stint at Yonkers which included another victory.

The rising star out of the Stalbaum stable drew post seven in the seven-horse Fillies and Mares Open on Tuesday but left hard to get the two-hole trip behind leader Iron Mistress (Jimmy Devaux).

Iron Mistress, who was the runner-up in her debut in the local feature last week, carved out first-half fractions of 27.2 and 57.3 before pacing three quarters in 1:26.3. SS Superstar found open road in the passing lane in the stretch and motored home to prevail in 1:55.2 over a track labeled sloppy.

Iron Mistress was the runner-up in the feature for the second straight week while Alittlesidehustl N (Billy Dobson) came on to finish third. SS Superstar, who is owned by Shark Racing Stable, paid $4.50 as the 6-5 betting favorite on Tuesday. The victory was her sixth straight locally and eighth all together in 2025.
