Jolie I Am (Prayer I Am) extended his winning streak to three on Wednesday night at the harness racing meeting at Saratoga Casino and Raceway.
The Andrew Byler-trained three year old was making his fifth career start on Wednesday and stepped up to the $8,250 NY Sired non-winners of 2 races of $10,000 lifetime trot.
Frank Coppola Jr. piloted Jolie I Am for the first time and sat patiently in the first lap before unleashing the 8-5 favorite.
Following a first over journey, the young trotter surged past the race's leader Showmeyourguns (John Stark Jr) who ended up as the runner up.
Whateverwillbwillb (Mark Whitcroft) earned the show spot in Jolie I Am's third consecutive victory, one that came in a career best 2:00.
Live racing continues on Thursday with a first post time set for 7:05pm.
