Promising winners in Philadelphia qualifiers

Chester, PA — Some promising 3-year-olds and a well-remembered 3-year-old from last year were among the winners in Tuesday morning (April 25) qualifiers at Harrah’s Philadelphia.

Among the successes were Portulaca, a Donato Hanover trotting filly who was a multi-stakes winner at two, fronting a field in 1:57.3 for driver David Miller and trainer Kathleen La Montagne, the latter co-owner with Donald La Montagne.

Inter Mischief, an International Moni colt who was the leader of his Massachusetts trotting group, led at every pole in 1:55.3 for driver Tony Morgan and trainer Jamie Sullivan, co-owner with Frank Chick.

Tres Cher Deo, a Captaintreacherous pacing filly with a wealth of pedigree on her dam’s side, won in her first career charted line in 1:55 for driver Andrew McCarthy, trainer Robert Cleary, and Deo Volente Farms.

Night Hawk, a 4-year-old Betting Line gelding who earned $352,988 at three, prepared for his 2023 campaign by coming home with a 1:54.3 win while now campaigning for Team Bongiorno — driver Joe and trainer Jenn — and the ownership of JB Racing, Crawford Farms Racing, James Crawford IV, and Howard Taylor.

The Tuesday Harrah’s qualifying races can be seen through the PHHA website, www.phha.org.
