The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono featured two $35,000 divisions of a Pennsylvania All-Stars event for two-year-old trotting fillies on its Sunday (July 18) card, and a noteworthy career debut was made by Mon Cheval, who came home in :57-:28 to stop the timer in 1:54.3.
At 1-9, Mon Cheval was expected to do well for several reasons: she had won two consecutive baby races before her debut, one in 1:54.2 at The Meadowlands, and she has among the most royal of pedigrees Father Patrick–Shake It Cerry, a pairing which earned over $5 million, a Trotter of the Year award, and four seasonal divisional honours, not to mention their post-racetrack careers. Dexter Dunn drove her as if she were the best, and she certainly was for trainer Nancy Takter (the defending Driver and Trainer of the Year combining) and the noted Solveig’s Racing Partners.
