Washington, PA — Bet On Zette overcame a brutal opening panel to collect her fourth straight victory in Wednesday’s (July 5) co-feature at The Meadows, a $12,100 Conditioned Pace.
Bet On Zette was parked from post seven in that :26.3 first quarter before crossing over for Ronnie Wrenn, Jr. The 4-year-od son of Bettor’s Delight-Friskie Beauty had more than enough in the tank to repel the outside challengers and hold off the Lightning Lane bid of Lyons Lou by 1/2 length in a career-best 1:51. El’s Rocker completed the ticket.
Ron Burke trains Bet On Zette for No Recall Stable.
Speaking of winning four straight, that’s also what Aston Hill Dave did In Wednesday’s companion feature, a $12,100 Conditioned Pace. After squeezing into the pocket near the half, the 9-year-old Sportswriter-Precious Katie gelding outkicked Seeyou At Thebeach for Dave Palone and downed him by just over a length in 1:50. Brandon Presto trains and Ameer Najor owns Aston Hill Dive, who now has banked $422,045.
Wrenn notched five wins, including a pair for Burke, on the 12-race card while Presto enjoyed a triple.
