East Rutherford, NJ — Ginger And Fred displayed some fancy footwork as she glided to victory over a sloppy track in the $50,000 second round of the Overbid Series on Friday night (March 12) at Meadowlands Racetrack.

With Tim Tetrick in tow, Ginger And Fred swung up to take the lead from BC’s Jesse after a :29.3 opening quarter and went untested through middle fractions of :57.3 and 1:25.1. She dug in gamely to fend off a late challenge by Knock Three Times for a 1-1/2 length tally in 1:53.3.

Ginger And Fred, trained by Ron Burke, surpassed $900,000 in career earnings with the victory. The prolific 4-year-old daughter of Real Artist-Graceful Motion has won 15 of 36 starts for owners Howard Taylor, Robert Feldman, Edwin Gold and Jerry Silva. She will have the chance to add to her coffers in the $123,000 (est.) Overbid Final on March 19.
