Team Block and Rich
Ege’s
Askbut I Won’ttell,
unhurried early, launched a bold bid when set down for the drive,
gained the advantage near the three-sixteenths pole and drew off
steadily the rest
of the way for a 4 1/2-length tally in Monday’s $43,000 featured race
for fillies and mares at about 1 1/16-miles over the Stall Wilson turf
course.
Trained by
Neil Pessin and ridden by
leading rider
Shaun Bridgmohan, the
winner returned mutuels of $3.80, $2.40 and $2.20 as the odds-on choice
of the fans, increased her career earnings to $105,791 with her third
win in eight lifetime starts and toured the distance
in 1:46.70.
Don Eberts’
Pretty Squall, always
well placed, could not stay with the winner late but was clearly second
best, finishing 1 3/4-lengths to the good of
Dundalk 5’s Blue Smoke Bess.
Pretty Squall paid $3.20
and $2.80 and Blue Smoke Bess returned $2.80 to show.
Keith Chudzik’s
Super Poni made the pace
with splits of 25.02 and 51.39 before tiring to sixth.
Racing resumes Wednesday
