Third straight and career best at 22-1

WASHINGTON, PA, March 30, 2023  — Dismissed at 22-1, Saint K (Sebastian K S-Mauresmo) cut enterprising fractions from post 8, then dug in late to capture his third straight win in Thursday’s (Mar. 30) harness racing feature at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $15,400 Conditioned Trot.

Saint K threw down a 1:24.3 three-quarters, swift enough to repel the outside challengers. But when Emerald’s Legacy, who had been shuffled to fifth, found a wide-open Lightning Lane, the race was on. Saint K responded to Drew Monti’s urging and edged Emerald’s Legacy by a nose in a career-best 1:54.1, with Warrawee Whisper third.

Sarah Andrews trains Saint K, a 5-year-old gelding who extended his lifetime earnings to $115,120, and owns with Angela Cornell and Tessie Esry.

Dave Palone piloted three winners on the 13-race card.

Live racing at The Meadows continues Friday when the 14-race program features an $810.07 carryover in the early Pentafecta (race 4). First post is 12:45 PM.
