Anderson, IN – Reflect With Me ventured to Harrah’s Hoosier Park for the first time in her illustrious career and made her debut a winning one on Friday (July 24) as she captured the featured event of the evening, the $100,000 Nadia Lobell Stakes for 3-year-old pacing fillies.

Reflect With Me re-established the track record for 3-year-old pacing fillies with a 1:48.2 score in the $100,000 Nadia Lobell Stakes. Dean Gillette Photography.

Stopping the timer in an eye-catching 1:48.2, Reflect With Me destroyed the previous track record for 3-year-old pacing fillies at Harrah’s Hoosier Park, established a new lifetime mark and also recorded the season’s fastest time for a 3-year-old pacing filly with the win. The mile also marked the second consecutive night a national season’s record was established at Harrah’s Hoosier Park.

With regular pilot Andrew McCarthy in the sulky, Reflect With Me left just enough from post four to grab a pocket seat behind Priceless and Brandon Bates who left alertly from post five. Priceless appeared relaxed on the front end as she dictated first half fractions of :26.2 and :55.

As the field approached the final turn, Trace Tetrick had Lady Lou out and attacking from first-over and the pace began to quicken with a three-quarter clocking in 1:21.4. Priceless was able to put away Lady Lou but Reflect With Me wound up in the pocket.

McCarthy found late racing room and the top two fillies were matching strides down the lane. Using a: 26.1 final quarter, Reflect With Me was able to stick a head in front of a very game Priceless to get the win. Genie Rockwell and Marlin Fry utilized a ground-saving trip to get up for third. Sent off at odds of 1-5, Reflect With Me returned $2.60 to her backers at the betting windows.

“I respect Priceless a lot and knew we wanted to stay close to her,” McCarthy noted after the victory. “I was hoping for room in the stretch. This filly is so speedy; she’ll sit you back in your seat when you ask her to go.

“She’s got extreme speed,” he continued. “She just wants to win.”

With the win, the 2019 Breeders Crown winner remains undefeated in three starts to kick-off her sophomore campaign. For her career, Reflect With Me has won eight of 14 races, missed the board only once, and amassed $625,122. Trained by Tony Alagna, the daughter of Captaintreacherous-Remember When is owned in partnership by Brittany Farms LLC and Bradley Grant. Brittany Farms also bred the filly.
