In Range was one of the top trotting male freshmen last year, and the Hambletonian eligible was looking to kick off a huge sophomore campaign in Saturday’s $150,507 Pennsylvania Sires Stake at The Meadows. But midway down the backside, he was passed by local favourite Jujubee. How would he respond?
Quite nicely, thank you. In Range overtook Jujubee in mid-stretch and scored in 1:52.3, matching the stake record established by Valley Of Sin in 2013.
The stake, known as the Hickory Smoke, was contested over three divisions, with Whiskey Blu and Johan Palema taking the other splits.
Marcus Melander, who trains In Range for AMG Stable, Kenneth Kjellgren, Tomas Ansell and Rick Wahlstedt, said he wasn’t overly concerned when the son of Bar Hopping-Ilia yielded the lead to the local upstart.

With late-developing youngsters coming to Harrah’s Philadelphia from every direction, the southeast Pennsylvania track featured four $12,600 events, two on each gait, that could serve as steppingstones to nearby future glory. The meet’s leading driver, Tim Tetrick, guided a feature winner on each gait during a day which would see him win five races overall.
On the pacing side, where both headliners were limited to males, The Cookie Monster gobbled favoured pacesetter Rockin Rocko late to be along in 1:52.4 over what was then a “sloppy +2” surface. The son of American Ideal, unraced at two and three, has now won half his ten lifetime starts, with Tetrick driving and Scott Di Domenico doing the training for JFE Enterprise LLC.
