Washington, PA — Lady Newton shot the Lightning Lane to outkick her stablemate, Blue Ivy, and pull off a 16-1 upset in Wednesday’s (May 25) $16,000 Filly & Mare Open Handicap Pace at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows.

Game Of Shadows led the field turning for home and was challenged outside by the pocket-sitting Blue Ivy. Lurking inside, however, was Lady Newton, who surged late for Ridge Warren to score in 1:52, a neck better than Blue Ivy. Game Of Shadows saved show.

Bill Bercury trains Blue Ivy and Lady Newton, a 4-year-old daughter of Sweet Lou-I’m Sassy who lifted her lifetime bankroll to $149,634, for Renee Bercury.

It was one of four wins for Warren on the 11-race card; the first of those victories gave him 1,000 for his career.
