March 1, 2006

Vysoke Tatry and Lye Creek Betty each won her $16,000 division of the Night Styles Series Wednesday night at the Meadowlands. The top 10 money earners in the three-week series for pacing mares advance to the $57,000 final on Wednesday, March 8.

Vysoke Tatry, who has already captured the Snow Angel and White Ruffles Finals this winter, coasted to a one-length victory in the first division, extending her winning streak to three. This year she has four wins in five starts and has won 11 of 15 starts lifetime.

Driven by Andy Miller and trained by Erv Miller, the four-year-old daughter of Dragon’s Lair paced the mile in 1:52.4. She has earned nearly $100,000 for the Andray Farm of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, her owner and breeder. Cool Character got up for second with I’m All In in third.

In the second division, Lye Creek Betty got up in the final strides to catch even-money favorite Yancee for a head victory in 1:53.4. Enchanted Beauty was third. Driven by Eric Ledford and trained by co-owner John Stubbs, Lye Creek Betty posted her first win since November 23. She now has a victory and two seconds in four starts this year.

The Indiana-bred daughter of Mark Johnathan, owned by Stubbs, of Fort Washington, Maryland, and William Shaw of Virginia Beach, Virginia, has a career record of eight wins, eight seconds and nine thirds from 36 starts and earnings of $63,589.
