Washington, PA — Undeterred by her eye-popping 55-1 odds, Faith Step moved confidently first over and pulled off the shocker in Thursday’s (April 25) $17,300 final of the Margaret Provost Memorial Trot, for 3-year-old fillies, at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows.

The race became up for grabs with the early breaks of Lexi B and Skyline Seashell, the top two picks on the board. When Ciao Time took the point and Whiskey’d My Way secured the pocket, they had reason to be comfortable with their positions.

But Faith Step invaded that comfort zone when she attacked from fourth for Ridge Warren. The homebred daughter of Fordham Road-Fast Reaction overtook Ciao Time in deep stretch and defeated her by a half length in a career-best 1:56, with Whiskey’d My Way third.
