Swedish Starlet N wins again at Saratoga

Saratoga Springs, NY — Swedish Starlet N (Mach Three) continued her terrific start to the 2024 campaign at Saratoga Casino Hotel when on Tuesday (March 12) the Jimmy Nickerson trainee won for the fourth time.

Competing in the matinee’s $11,500 feature for fillies and mares, Swedish Starlet N was heavily backed in the wagering as her race’s 2-5 favorite and driver Matt Athearn wasted little time putting the 7-year-old on the front-end. The New Zealand-bred distaffer never faced an anxious moment en route to a wire-to-wire score, her fourth victory in five local starts in ‘24.

Longshot Fond Memories A (Larry Stalbaum) dropped out of the Open to finish second at odds of 13-1 to complete a $14.80 exacta while Goldies Adelight A (Ron Cushing) rounded out a $75.50 triple.

Swedish Starlet N becomes a four-time winner on the young campaign for owners Tim Bojarski and Anthony Gruppo.

Live racing resumes on Saturday evening at Saratoga with a first race post time set for 5 p.m. There will be a $2,642 carryover in the Pick-5 pool with the wagering starting in the first race. The jackpot in the Super High 5 is up to a giant $16,893 in the Saturday finale.
