The sophomore filly was a second-place finisher in the second leg of the series after prevailing in leg one. On Sunday, she went off at odds of 4-1 with Mitch Cushing in the sulky.
Mommas A Diva made every pole a winning one in the Series final, fending off steady pressure from the race’s favorite Uncle Andy who came first-over on the eventual winner. Momma’s A Diva seemed to tire some in the stretch but had enough to hold off late challenges from Be Different (Jimmy Devaux), who wound up as the runner-up, and longshot Notoutofthewoods (Mark Whitcroft), who earned the show spot. The time of the mile was 2:00.3.
Mommas A Diva has now finished first or second in seven consecutive races en route to over $40,000 in earnings in 2023. The winner is owned by Hoagland Racing LLC. Momma’s A Diva paid $10.60 to win in the mild upset and led an exacta and triple that returned $39 and $341, respectively.
