Miller's victory with Free in the $46,500 mares open was enough to push him past the milestone in the eighth race of the night. "It's a big accomplishment to go over that mark," said Miller. "Honestly, going into tonight, I didn't know I was that close. Free is certainly a good mare, very versatile." Miller and Free took the early lead and yielded to My Little Dragon with three-eighths of a mile to go. In mid-stretch, Miller tipped his mare out and she wore down the leader for a half-length victory in 1:50.2. Trained by Kelvin Harrison, Free posted her fourth win in seven starts this season and second straight at the Meadowlands. She was a $200,000 private purchase on May 5, 2007 by Joseph Alflen of Redondo Beach, California.
