WITCH DALI SWEEPS THREE PETTICOAT PACING PRELIMS; MARE TRIES FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT MONDAY NIGHT AT YONKERS RACEWAY
from Diego IsioYONKERS, NY—Her opponents may need a Witch Doctor to stop Witch Dali at Yonkers Raceway! The conventional methods have not worked thus far.
“She’s just a big, strong (mare) who carries her speed a long way and hums around Yonkers with no problem,” said driver Tim Tetrick this past Monday night after Witch Dali ($2.10) authored a third consecutive victory in sweeping the Raceway’s thee preliminary legs in the Petticoat Pacing Series. The attempt for the coup de grace comes in the $54,800 Petticoat Final next Monday, March 30 at Empire City Casino's historic half mile oval.
Leaving from post position No. 3 in the first of two $12,500 events for 3- and 4-year-old lasses, the 1-20 favorite never had an anxious moment (:28.2, :58.2, 1:26.1; 1:54.1). The final margin was wrapped-up six lengths over Always Sunday (Jason Bartlett), with Cheyenne Robin (George Brennan) third.
For Witch Dali, a 4-year-old daughter of Dali co-owned (as Alagna Racing) by (trainer) Tony Alagna and Brad Grant, it was her fifth win in nine seasonal starts. The exacta paid $11.80, with the triple returning $39.20.
It was Witch Dali’s second consecutive six-length romp in the preps, firmly stamping her as the lass to beat in next Monday’s finale.
