North America Cup winner It’s My Show headlines Adios field of 17

Washington, PA — Pepsi North America Cup winner It’s My Show headlines a field of 17 top 3-year-old pacers for the $450,000 Delvin Miller Adios Pace for the Orchids at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows. Two $25,000 eliminations (races seven and eight) are set for Saturday, when the card begins at 12:45 p.m.

The final goes on Adios Day (Saturday, July 29), with a first post of 11:45 a.m.

It’s My Show (Sweet Lou-Put On A Show) is undefeated in six starts this year, including that impressive 1:47.4 North America Cup victory. He leaves from post three, race eight, with Scott Zeron driving. He’ll be joined in the field by his stablemate, Fulton (race seven, post seven, Dexter Dunn), last year’s Pennsylvania juvenile champion. It’s My Show and Fulton give trainer Linda Toscano a formidable one-two punch.

Meadows-based trainer Ron Burke, the sport’s all-time leading conditioner, will be represented by four horses: Gung Ho (race seven, post four, Yannick Gingras), Act Fast (race seven, post nine, Chris Page), Ervin Hanover (race eight, post five, Gingras) and Loubet (race eight, post eight, Gingras).

Also sending out multiple hopefuls is trainer Per Engblom, who has entered Strengthfromabove (race seven, post eight, Gingras) and Just Bet It All (race eight, post one, Tim Tetrick).

The Adios eliminations card also features PA Sires Stake action, while the blockbuster Adios Day program offers five Grand Circuit stakes in addition to the Adios final.
