Harrington, DE — Let It Ride Stable and Carl Howard’s Just Applause ($2.80, Tim Tetrick) was a 1:55 winner to head a pair of Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund (DSBF) $20,000 divisions for 2-year-old pacing fillies Tuesday (Sept. 30) at Harrington Raceway.
The daughter of He’s Watching raced gamely off a first-over trip where she applied pressure on pacesetter Warren’s Charm before edging clear in deep stretch for her 1st career win for trainer Linda Toscano. Just Applause raced admirably in second, her first defeat in four career starts, with long shot Lovers Cay third.
Tetrick won both DSBF splits as Odds On Put Option ($3.00) started the stakes action with a 1:55.4 triumph over Meemaw’s Column and Philly View.
The first-time starter was successful with a first-over charge near three-quarters to make the lead and pull away from the field. The He’s Watching filly is owned by Odds On Racing for trainer Scott DiDomenico.
Barton Dalious won three races on the card. Jason Thompson, Jason Green and Troy Beyer joined Tetrick with doubles.
DSBF stakes action continues Wednesday (Oct. 1) with a quartet of divisions for trotters. Post time is 4:30 p.m.
