The 8-Year-Old Cam Fella mare benefited from fast fractions (26.2 seconds and 55.1) and moved up as the field moved toward the half, engaging in a prolonged duel with leader True Blue Lu.

Cam's Valentine drew off in the lane to post a 2 1/4 length win and earn her share of the standard. The time is also the fastest ever by a female pacer over the Flying Turns.

Four other veteran pacing mares have posted 1.52.3 wins on half-mile ovals - Pacific Flight N, Cohiba Mary, Windermere Girl N and Clearly Clout.

Cam's Valentine is owned by a group headed by Chris Arold, Mike Drury, Ken and Joe Kohut and Doug Domer.
