Tioga Downs continued with its second day of live racing action on Sunday
afternoon. Highlighting the thirteen race card, were two divisions of NYSS prep
races for 3-year old trotting fillies. In the second division, Cowgirl Hall,
and Gates Brunet showed that they are ready for the sire stakes which are just
around the corner. Leaving from post position number five, Brunet was insistent
on having control of the fractions and was used twice to finally gain control
at the half in 56.3. From there Cowgirl Hall did everything she was asked
trotting away impressively from the field in a new lifetime mark, and a current
national seasons record for a five eighth’s mile track of 1:55.1. The 3-year old
daughter of Cash Hall – Centerfold Hall is owned by Gewertz, Rosenthall,
Brunet, and Brunet and she is trained by Gates Brunet. In the first division,
Miss Connor, stayed perfect in her young racing career by posting her second
win in as many outings for trainer Chris Ryder in 1:58.2.
Jim Morrill Jr. posted a driving triple on the afternoon’s card, while Jim
Meittinis and Sean Bier each scored doubles.
