At 220-1 Our Rail Fantasy lit up the tote board on Wednesday at The Meadows.

In Wednesday’s feature, the $22,500 Winners Over $10,000 Life/Preferred Handicap Trot, Call For Justice followed cover willingly, then blazed through the lane to score in 1:53.3 — a lifetime mark.

Call For Justice was away seventh for Dave Palone but picked up live cover from the first-over Classicality, who relentlessly wore down the leader, Tamarind. Call For Justice tipped off cover around the final turn and blew by Classicality, downing him by 1-1/4 lengths. I Know My Chip finished third. Ron Burke trains Call For Justice, a 4-year-old son of Justice Hall-Mika’s Mazurka who now boasts $187,454 in career earnings, for Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.

Jim Pantaleano, Dan Rawlings, Burke and Palone each enjoyed a double on the 13-race card.
