John Horne for Tioga Downs.
Wally Hennessey continues to rack up the wins at Tioga
Downs. He drove six winners including
the featured $9,000 Fillies and Mares Open Pace with Landry Seelster on
Saturday (May 22).
In the feature Landry Seelster ($3.10) worked her way to
the front and led to the first quarter in :26.1. She slowed the pace with a :29.3 second
quarter hitting the half in :55.4.
Persistent Bettor (Jody Jamieson) made a first-over move to try to get
to Landry Seelster. Landry Seelster
shook her off and led to three-quarters in 1:22.2.
Talk Show Chica (Corey Braden) popped the pocket and gave
her best effort but had to settle for second as Landry Seelster coasted to a
lifetime best of 1:51.3. Persistent
Bettor held on for third.
Landry Seelster is a 4-year-old mare by Mach Three. She is owned by Kim Lezanchuk and trained by
Jim McDonald. It was her fourth win of
the season. She now owns 10 career wins.

($4.10), and Idealthecards ($5.00)
