Jake Huff Stable celebrated another victory as Holy Being, driven by Anthony Napolitano, dominated the $15,000 featured harness racing trot at Pocono Downs in Mohegan, Pennsylvania. Holy Being surged ahead in the race, posting impressive times of :28.1, :58, and 1:27.1 before crossing the finish line in 1:55.1.
Anthony Napolitano, the standout driver of the day at Pocono with three wins, expertly guided Holy Being to a 1¼ length triumph over Quarantina under the training of Jake Huff and Beauty Bridle Racing Stable Inc.
The racing action at Pocono on Monday showcased a stark contrast between the first and last halves of the twelve-race card. While front-runners like Holy Being dominated the latter part of the day, the initial races saw five of the first six winners leading the pack. Notably, favorites clinched victories in the first six races, but failed to secure wins in the subsequent races, culminating in Optrix’s surprising triumph in the final race at odds of $104.60, marking one of the highest prices of the 2023 season.
Following the unexpected mutuel breakdown on Monday, Tuesday’s card at Pocono is set to feature three carryovers (Pick-4, Pick-5, and High-5). The racing highlights will include two $15,500 events for top claiming handicap trotters, along with four $15,000 divisions of the “nw 4 races” class. The racing action is scheduled to commence at 1 p.m., with program details available for all Pocono races.
