Sheez On A Cruze, a confident winner, caps the $22,000 Winners over Select Trot at Dover Downs on Tuesday night.
Mind Yown Business and Theresademoninme were the quickest to leave at the start of the race. Theresademoninme powered to the lead before the quarter and set fractions of 27.3, :57 and 1:24.2.
Filled Donut and driver Art Stafford Jr. trotted 1st up before the half and pressured Theresademoninme to the three quarters. They trotted a 27.2 third quarter.
Theresademoninme remained stubborn on the rail as Filled Donut took a neck lead but could not clear at the three quarter pole. Faithfulandtrue was towed into a 2nd over journey on the rim and the 3/5 race favorite Sheeze On A Cruze caught the third over cover.
As the field entered the top of the stretch, Filled Donut tired. Faithfulandtrue and Sheez On A Cruz were revved up and sent three and four wide respectively. They collared Theresademoninme in mid stretch.
Sheez On A Cruze, a six year old mare by Crazed, won by a half length as the ½ race favorite. She trotted the mile in 1:53.4.
Sheez On A Cruze is owned and trained by Brenda Teague. Montrell Teague, her nephew, was the winning driver.
Theresademoninme was a game second for trainer Dylan Davis and driver Corey Callahan. Faithfulandtrue picked up the show spot for trainer Joe Columbo and driver Mike Cole.
Russell Foster and Montrell Teague each won 3 races on the card.
Racing resumes on Wednesday at Dover Downs. Post Time is 4:30 pm.
