Just Applause and Odds On Put Option, both driven by Tim Tetrick, won their respective $20,000 Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund divisions for 2-year-old filly pacers Tuesday at Harrington Raceway to complete a sweep of the two elimination legs.
Let It Ride Stable's Just Applause ($2.10, Tetrick) was a 1:56 3/5 winner in the first division. Lovers Cay was second with Philly View third. Trained by Linda Toscano, the He's Watching filly improved to two-for-four lifetime, triumphing off a pocket trip behind pace-setter Lovers Cay.
In the remaining division, Odds On Racing's Odds On Put Option ($2.10, Tetrick), prevailed on the front-end impressively in 1:56 1/5 over Burlesque Belle and Sucha Sporty Girl. The He's Watching filly improved to two-for-two lifetime for trainer Scott Di Domenico.
