Benefitting from a drop in class from Open company, Misty Memory N dominated in the Wednesday afternoon (April 28) feature at Saratoga Casino Hotel, a $10,000 high-level conditioned pace for fillies and mares.
Jimmy Devaux was aggressive with the eight-year-old Real Desire mare from the get-go, powering to the early lead and widening her margin steadily to defeat Hereslooknatyou N by 5-1/2 lengths in 1:55. Glenferrie Blade A rallied for third.
Misty Memory N, who recorded her second win in 12 starts this year for trainer Brett Derue and fellow co-owners Steven Picarazzi and Scott Petillo, returned $5.40 to win as the 8-5 favourite.
Live racing at Saratoga returns on Monday (May 3) starting at 12 noon.
