EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ -- July 12, 2025 -- Twin B Joe Fresh and driver Dexter Dunn made a big move on the backstretch to take the lead and never looked back on their way to a 1:48.1 win in Saturday’s $142,000 Grade 2 Dorothy Haughton Memorial for older female pacers at The Meadowlands. Sylvia Hanover finished second, 2-1/4 lengths behind the winner, and Walkin On Sunshine was third.

 

The victory was Twin B Joe Fresh’s second in a row in the Dorothy Haughton Memorial and avenged a loss to Sylvia Hanover in their most recent encounter on June 28 in the Perfect Sting Mare Pace at The Big M.

 

“Last (time) we just got beat fair and square, I’m not going to make any excuses,” said Chris Ryder, who trains and co-owns Twin B Joe Fresh. “But I was a whole lot more confident tonight. I wasn’t surprised that she was as good as she was here.

 

“I’m super happy with the mare. It’s just the ride of a lifetime. It’s just fantastic.”

 

Twin B Joe Fresh, the 2024 Dan Patch Horse of the Year, was fourth from post one in an opening quarter that saw Kobe’s Gigi, My Girl EJ and Sylvia Hanover all make bids for the front. My Girl EJ was on top at the quarter in :26.1 but Sylvia Hanover, who started from post nine, grabbed the lead soon after on the way to the half in :55.1.

 

By then, Dunn was already on the move with Twin B Joe Fresh and took control heading into the last turn. They reached three-quarters in 1:22.3 and drew clear in the stretch with a :25.3 sprint home for the mare’s 33rd win in 44 career races.

 

“There were a few leavers early,” Dunn said. “I’m so lucky with her, she lets you do what you want. We moved down the back and I was just going to ride slowly, but she wanted to carry on and she got around pretty easy. She just felt fantastic on the last turn and when I asked her to quicken, she was like her usual self and took off.”

 

Twin B Joe Fresh is owned by Ryder, Dunn, Peter Trebotica and Barry Spak. She has won three of four races this season and pushed her career earnings to $2.58 million. The daughter of Roll With Joe-Fresh Breeze was bred by Brittany Farms.

 

Sent off as the 1-5 favorite, Twin B Joe Fresh paid $2.60 to win.
