Jeffery P cruises to life mark 1:52.1 in Meadows top trot

Washington, PA – Jeffery P overwhelmed a distinguished field Friday (Jan 29) at The Meadows, cruising to a career-best 1:52.1 victory in the $16,200 Open Handicap Trot.

Jeffery P quarter-poled to the top for Dave Palone and began drawing off past the half. From there, the only question was how much his winning margin would be. The answer — 5-1/4 lengths ahead of early leader Icanflylikeanangel, with Lady’s Dude third.
