Fly Emily Fly, who needed three qualifiers in the past month due to persistent gaiting problems, was flat and fast on Thursday at The Meadows, winning the swiftest division of the Closing Bell Series for 3- and 4-year-old trotting fillies and mares. Coyote Lara, Elizabeth Lane and Graceful Sister captured the other $12,000 divisions in the series' second leg. A 4-year-old daughter of Pegasus Spur-Butter Fly, Fly Emily Fly broke stride in her three most recent pari-mutuel events, but she was all trot when Brian Zendt guided her to the pocket, then to the lead with a decisive quarter-pole move. She scored in 2:00.3, three lengths better than Sweet Mademoiselle. LA's Blue Sky was a distant third. Pat Medors trains Fly Emily Fly for Robert and Paulann Sidley. In the $25,000 Filly and Mare Preferred Handicap Pace, Jans Luck made it six victories in her last eight starts, scoring wire-to-wire in 1:55.1. Spring Break was second by a neck with Niabunny third. Dave Palone drove Jans Luck, a 5-year-old daughter of Camluck-Jans Scooter, for trainer Ron Burke and the partnership of Sylvia Burke, Weaver Bruscemi LLC, JJK Stables and M1 Stable.
Mike Wilder drove four winners on the 15-race card. (The Meadows)
