Rodney Wyatt's Ireneonthemove, with Tony Morgan driving, returned home to the First State in style Tuesday, winning the $22,000 Mares Junior Open at Harrington Raceway in 1:52.4, the fastest race of the night.
The Jason Skinner-trainee had previously raced at Harrah's Chester Downs in Pennsylvania before her wire-to-wire triumph from post seven at Harrington. The win pushed her closer to $500,000 in career earnings and was her 20th career victory in 66 starts. Casino Bus was second while Sixteen Candles, who had won the previous two events, was third.
In the other Mares Junior Open division, Teague Inc. and Demorrio Williams' Firiel Hanover (Jim Morand) took advantage of her rail post draw and coasted to a 1:54.1 win.
Morgan won six races on the card, while Morand registered a driving triple. (Harrington Raceway)
