Apple Bottom Jeans rallied powerfully to a 1:52.4 score in Tuesday’s Mares Open at Harrington Raceway.
Sayulita marched to the early lead from post position four, where she would lead the seven-horse field most of the way unchallenged until a first-over Empress Deo applied pressure. At the top of the stretch, Apple Bottom Jeans gathered momentum from the final turn and exploded with pace to the lead for a powerful triumph. Sayulita held second with Fashion Showdown third.
The 5-year-old Mr Apples mare registered her fourth win of the season for trainer Kevin Switzer. Apple Bottom Jeans has been well-traveled this year, racing against top mares in three different states over the past two months.
Foster had four wins on the program.
