CAROBBEAN PACETRY WINS FRIDAY NIGHT 40G DISTAFF DERBY

March 9, 2018-Carobbean Pacetry (Jordan Stratton, $7.40) held off 2-1 choice Gina Grace N (Larry Stalbaum) in a two-speed number Friday night (March 9th), winning Yonkers Raceway's $40,000 Filly and Mare Open Handicap Pace.
Wide early from post position No. 5, Carobbean Pacetry worked around her rival, making the lead before a 27.2 opening quarter-mile. She then rated a 57.1 middle half (56.1, 1:24.3), easier since the only one to move at her from a from-seventh L A Delight (Marcus Johansson).

Carobbean Pacetry opened a pair of lengths off the final turn, whipping Gina Grace N by a length-and-a-quarter in 1:53.3. L A Delight was a quite credible third, with Safe from Terror (Matt Kakaley) and Itty Bitty (Jason Bartlett) settling for the minors.
