SHE’S ALL IN POSTS IMPRESSIVE DAYLIGHT WIN
OKLAHOMA CITY – She’s All In made the lead in Thursday’s $33,200 allowance feature for Oklahoma-bred fillies at Remington Park and never looked back, cruising to an easy 9-3/4 length victory.
Owned by Robert Zoellner of Tulsa, Okla. and trained by Roger Engel, She’s All In started sharply under Cliff Berry then set a pace that would allow her a kick for the stretch run in the 1 mile-70 yard race over a muddy surface. After lulling her six rivals to sleep with fractions of :24.11 for the quarter-mile, 48.01 for the half-mile and 1:12.81 for three-quarters of a mile, She’s All In pulled away with plenty left in the stretch.
Molly Will Pass pressured the winner through the first six furlongs of the race but could not keep up when She’s All In found something more to pull away and win in 1:42.70. Varna rallied from last to gain third, another 6-1/2 lengths behind the runner-up and over 16 lengths behind the winner.
The wagering favorite at 3-5 odds, She’s All In paid $3.40 to win, $2.20 to place and $2.10 to show. Molly Will Pass returned $3.20 to place and $2.20 to show. Varna paid $3.60 to show.
She’s All In ran her streak of in-the-money races to five straight, posting her second win in her last four attempts. The pair of wins represents her career total from seven lifetime starts. Thursday’s triumph was her first in two attempts at Remington Park. A 3-year-old daughter of Include from the Hickory Ridge mare Georgia OK, She’s All In made $19,360 for the effort and boosted her overall earnings to $41,917.
Berry’s win aboard She’s All In was his second of the night. He also won with Land Run ($12.20 to win) in the fifth race. The riding double gives Berry 23 wins for the season and moves him back into sole possession of the lead in the jockey standings, two ahead of Bryan McNeil who has 21.
The Remington Park Thoroughbred Season continues Friday and Saturday night this week with the first race both nights at 6:30pm.
