Call Me A Winner and Glide By Shooting also took $17,500 second-leg divisions in the event for 3-year-old filly trotters. The series championship is set for Wednesday (April 23).

Steppin Out trailed by six lengths before Dan Rawlings sent her after the leader, Hierarchy. The daughter of Yankee Glide-Quantum Darling put that one away and rolled to victory in 1:58.3, three lengths better than the pocket-sitting Glams K. Ideal Emma finished third.
