Early jubilations for Celebrate With Me

WASHINGTON, PA, Oct. 27, 2022 — Celebrate With Me (Full Count-Glisten Hanover) grabbed the lead effortlessly first over, opened a daylight lead and won without urging in Thursday’s (Oct. 27) harness racing feature at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $12,100 Conditioned Trot.

Celebrate With Me sat fourth down the backside when Dave Palone sent her after the front-ending A Fancy Face. The 4-year-old mare cleared easily and was unthreatened thereafter, prevailing in 1:54. Swan Legacy rallied for second, 5-3/4 lengths back, while A Fancy Face saved show. Ron Burke trains Celebrate With Me, who now boasts a lifetime bankroll of $374,053, for Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi LLC, Rich Lombardo Racing and Knox Services.
