Meadow Lands, PA — JK Reunited completed her sweep of the Early Call series for 3- and 4-year-old filly pacers Friday at The Meadows, capturing the $28,700 final in 1:52.2, fastest mile this year for a 4-year-old mare on a 5/8-mile track. The daughter of Bettor’s Delight-JK On Broadway so dominated the series that the combined margin of her four victories was 22-3/4 lengths.

Dave Palone sent JK Reunited on a quarter-pole move that sealed the victory early. Dixie Dew Bluechip was 10-1/2 lengths back in second, with Marie The Artist third.

“She’s getting stronger and more confident, and today she was unbelievable,” Palone said. “When I stepped on the gas, she was gone. Surely she’ll get to climb the latter before we take on the top ones, but I’m sure she’ll get better. I’m not sure she wouldn’t be better chasing a helmet, but you don’t want to take a chance in these finals.”

Ron Burke trains JK Reunited for Sylvia Burke, Weaver Bruscemi LLC, JJK Stables and M1 Stable. Palone drove four winners — three for Burke — on the 13-race card.

Fiddle Rose, a 4-year-old daughter of Allamerican Ingot-Sunny Hanover, took the $12,000 Early Call consolation for Palone, trainer Rich Gillock and lessees Joe and Joann Thomson. Da Dancer and Helen’s Vision completed the ticket.

In the $25,000 Preferred Handicap Pace, Marty’s Charm not only endured a parked-out first quarter of 26.1, but he also fended off all challengers for Randy Tharps and coasted home in 1:51, a lifetime best. Biletnikoff was 3/4 lengths back in second while Pacey Deucey saved show after a demanding first-over trip.

Paul Corey trains Marty’s Charm, a 5-year-old gelded son of Aces N’ Sevens-Bets Mae, for Martha and Gerald Baluck.
