Jett Propelled puts on afterburners

HARRINGTON, DE – Bob Shahan’s Jett Propelled ($5, Jason Thompson) was a 1:54.3 winner in the featured $22,500 Mares Open Tuesday at Harrington Raceway.

Nite Time Deal assumed command of the featured field of mare pacers from post position six and led the field through fractions of 26.4, 55.3 and 1:24.4. Stevie Hanover then made a fierce first-over charge and cleared the pacesetter on the final turn.

At the top of the stretch, Jett Propelled fanned three-wide and surged by to hit the wire first for her 6th win of the year.

Trained by her owner, it was her 22nd career win as she boosted her lifetime earnings in excess of $485,000, and seasonal earnings to approximately $123,000. Almost Persuaded was second with Stevie Hanover third.

Brandon Givens had 4 wins on the program. Mike Cole and Trae Porter each had a pair of wins.
