Sportsmuffler romps in Buffalo Raceway feature

Hamburg, NY-  After suffering a narrow nose defeat last week, Sportsmuffler made sure she wasn’t going to suffer the same fate on Wednesday night (April 10).

Starting from the pylons, Sportsmuffler ($3.30) led every step of the way and blew away the field by four lengths in Buffalo Raceway’s $9,200 Class A-B Handicap pace for the filly and mares.

Sportsmuffler wasted no time in reaching the lead and never looking back for Billy Davis Jr. Steve Roth photo.

Sportsmuffler wasted no time in reaching the lead, putting up a :58.2 opening half over the fast track. Things went even quicker from there as driver Billy Davis Jr. put on the burners with Sportsmuffler, scorching the final half in :57.2. Rock My World (Kevin Cummings), who pinned the narrow loss on Sportsmuffler last week, had to settle for second place with Bad Glamour Girl (Ray Fisher Jr.) taking third.

Owned by Rose Campbell and trained by Steven Kiblin, it was the first victory of the season for Sportsmuffler (Sportsmaster-Whatifthere’smore). The 7-year-old mare has now earned $6,700 in 2019 and $294,806 in her career.

Jim Morrill Jr., Drew Monti and Davis Jr. all doubled on the program with Frank Mays and Jeff Amann scoring training doubles.

Racing will resume on Friday night (April 12) at 5 p.m. with a 10-race card on tap.
