Higher And Higher takes off at Pocono

June 24, 2010 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Higher And Higher established a new life mark of 1:50.3 in winning the $24,000 open handicap pace for fillies and mares Wednesday night at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs.

With Jim Morrill Jr. in the sulky, Higher And Higher held off Omen Hanover (Matt Kakaley) in a furious stretch drive coming down the lane with the winner getting to the wire by a nose. Third in the race some four lengths back was Shanghai Lil (David Miller).
Shanghai Lil took the eight-horse field of gals to the opening quarter in 26.4 with Omen Hanover sitting second.

Shortly thereafter, it was Makerbark (Roger Hammer) the new leader at the half with the timer at 56 seconds before Omen Hanover came first over followed by Higher And Higher.

The three-quarters went in 1:23.1 with Omen Hanover leading the way with Higher and Higher drawing near. Down the stretch the two horses raced as a team and neither would give in before the winner poked a nose in front at the wire.

Paul Reid trains Higher And Higher, now two for two on the year with both wins coming at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. (Pocono)
