Twice a winner for trainer Demelza McMahon in back to back starts since arriving at Penn National, Miner’s Gem, the 3-year-old home bred daughter of Distorted Humor, will take a step up in class seeking her fourth straight in a 6 furlong allowance for non-winners other than 1 race.
Prior to her current three race winning streak, she was fitted with blinkers and had little success through her first nine career starts.
A change of equipment to blinkers off coupled with a drop into low level claiming competition and she sailed through non-winners of two and three lifetime conditions on her way back to this level. She’s used her early speed to victory but will have plenty of high level competition this time out.
Miner’s Gem opens at 6-1.
