Three divisions of NYSS for 2-year-old filly trotters
highlighted an 11-race card on Saturday night at Tioga Downs.

| Crediama and Jim Marohn, Jr. |
Leading the
way for the filly trotters was Crediama (Jim Marohn Jr.) in the third and final
division of the night. Leaving from post position number four in a field of
seven, Marohn put Crediama on the front end and put up all the fractions of 29.1,
59, and 1:28 before turning for home. Deep in the stretch it looked as though
Beauty Of Gray (Jim Meittinis) may collar the leader on the wire, but Crediama
fought tough and survived a photo to score her maiden victory in 1:57.4.
Trond
Smedshammer trains the 2-year-old daughter of Credit Winner – Mama B for the
Purple Haze Stable of Fairport, NY.
Other division winners included: Share My Secret (Jim Marohn
Jr.) – 1:59.3 for Trond Smedshammer: Conway Hall – Lawn Tennis, and Annies List
(Andy Miller) – 1:58 for Julie Miller: Conway Hall – Ann's Promise.

included: Brookside Lily (Sean Bier) – 2:00.4, Caroline Street (Jim Meittinis) – 2:02,

$16,000 open handicap trot in 1:54.4 for trainer Guy Howard, and with the victory
vaulted his career earnings to more than $500,000 for the homebred son of Dream
