It was an afternoon of delight for owner-trainer Kelly Case as her grey mare rallied past opponents to win the program opener in the $4,600 Fillies and Mares Track Master Rating. Delightful Virgin and David Ingraham pulled in the upset as the longest shot on the board in the race. Starting from post six, Delightful Virgin got away in sixth as Threetimessix and Wallace Watson rallied out to take over the top spot early from the gate. The field stayed in single file through the quarter in :30.0 and nearly to the half in 1:01.1. Just before the half, Dancethebigdance N and Nicholas Graffam pulled out and Delightful Virgin followed his lead to the outside. Threetimessix continued to lead the way as Dancethebigdance N had moved up on the outside. Midway through the final turn, Delightful Virgin tipped three wide and was in perfect striking distance at the head of the lane. In the stretch, Delightful Virgin was widest of all and was making up ground with every stride. She was at the wire in perfect timing for the win by a nose over Dancethebigdance N. So Unnsurreal and Kevin Switzer Jr. finished third. Delightful Virgin paid $56.60 for the win. The eight-year-old daughter of Always a Virgin was bred by Emerald Highlands Farm. It was her first win of 2026 and her 18 th overall. She now has more than $142,000 with a career best time of 1:52.3 taken as a four-year-old at Plainridge. Later in the card, Indiana sired Duncans Ranger and Nicholas Graffam turned in a gutsy effort in claiming action to win by one and one-quarter lengths. The eight-year-old Palone Ranger gelding took over early but was immediately challenged by Furious Beach and McGwire Sowers at the half in 1:01.0. The outside horse could not clear but didn’t go away, forcing St Lads Thriller and Steven Wilson three wide at the three-quarters. Duncans Ranger stayed the course and fended his position to the finish line for the win in 2:00.3. Quan Blue Chip and Aaron Hall moved in for second over St Lads Thriller for third. Duncans Ranger was the favorite, paying $4.80 for the win. He is now owned by Ralph Silvestri and trained by Michelle Lefebvre. Dojea Stables bred and raised the Palone Ranger gelding, who picked up his third win of 2026. Overall, he has nine wins and more than $61,000 in earnings with his career best taken at Springfield as a six-year-old in 1:55.2. Duncans Ranger is from a very successful maternal family. He is a half brother to millionaire Eagle Luck with a mark of 1:48.3 and now standing at stud. The family also includes Hipnumberone, with a mark of 1:51.1 and more than $200,000 on her card.

Photo by Dean Gillette Practical Joke and Trace Tetrick got the last laugh Friday, April 3 in the first round of the Jerry Landess Series. The duo opened up on the field to score the win in 1:54.1, a new career best in their first start of 2026. Practical Joke began from post two and when the gate opened, he hesitated for a few strides before deciding to move on and go out for the lead. Tetrick had him settled on the front end before the quarter in :28.3 and was ahead of Vel Im Good and Doug Rideout by two lengths. Heading down the backside, Practical Joke had his ears up and was comfortable by the half in :57.4 before seeing any pressure on the outside. Ilikeitlikethat and Brandon Bates led the outer flow into the final turn. At the head of the stretch, it only took a little urging from Tetrick to signal Practical Joke to advance. He charged down the stretch and opened up to a four and one-quarter length advantage at the wire, pacing home in :27.3. Don’t Cuss Russ and John DeLong closed in for second over Midnight Vodka and Jeff Dever for third. Practical Joke paid $11.00 for the win. He is owned by Teagan Sage Racing and trained by Tom T. Tetrick. Rocky Road Stable bred and raised the colt, who had two wins last year on the Indiana Sired Fair Circuit. He was a $1,000 purchase as a yearling from the Midwest Classic Sale in Shipshewana, the lowest priced foal by Check Six that year. Check Six stood in Indiana for five seasons before moving to Minnesota in 2024. Practical Joke now has $15,000 in earnings to go along with his new mark of 1:54.1. In the other division of the Jerry Landess Series, Trace Tetrick guided F Thirty Five to victory after a rough first half. The three-year-old son of JK Endofanera was parked from the outside past the quarter in :28.0 and half in :56.3 before taking control of the front end. He was in full gear down the stretch and paced home in :27.0 for the win in 1:52.4. Bam Bam and Atlee Bender closed in for second over Echo Canyon and John DeLong for third. F Thirty Five paid $4.80 for the win as the favorite of the field. He is owned by Country Club Acres, Milton Leeman, and William Calvert, all of Ohio. Tyler George trains the gelding, who was bred and raised by Norman Miller. It was his first career start after going unraced at two. He was purchased by his connections as the sixth horse through the ring during the final Hoosier Classic Yearling Sale under the name Machanera from the RND Standardbreds consignment. Tyler George signed the ticket for $18,000 for the colt, who is a half-brother to Samson Blue Chip with a mark of 1:50.4 and earnings of more than $150,000.

Photo of Rockin Charli and LeWayne Miller by Dean Gillette One of the oldest series in track history got underway Thursday, April 2 and had a surprise winner in the end. The first round of the Miss Windfall series was won by longshot Rockin Charli, driven by LeWayne Miller. Rockin Charli began from post two and was able to get away in third as race favorite Rita’s Girl and Kyle Wilfong moved out to the lead from the inside spot. Ambehaving and Mike Peterson used early speed to get in behind the leader before the quarter in :27.4. Rita’s Girl continued to lead the way through the half in :57.3 before horses from the back formed a outer flow of traffic. Rockin Charli remained tucked in third around the final turn. At the head of the lane, Rita’s Girl continued to lead the way. Midway through the stretch, Rockin Charli found room to move out to the center of the track and once she was clear, she took off, rallying past her opponents with authority for the win in 1:56.3. Ambehaving finished four and one-half lengths back in second with Artistic Photo and Atlee Bender finishing third. Rockin Charli paid $63.80 for the win. The three-year-old daughter of Rockin Image is owned by Eash Racing Stable and trained by Don Eash. She was bred by Daryl Lehman and was sold early in the Hoosier Classic Yearling Sale from the 3-D Farms consignment. Don Eash signed the ticket for $8,000. Rockin Charli is the second foal from the Always B Miki mare, Angiesmiki Hanover. The second dam is 2007 Two-Year-Old Pacing Filly of the Year A And Gs Confusion, a winner of $1.4 million before becoming a successful brood mare. She is the dam of Mohawk Warrior with a mark of 1:49.1 and more than a half million on his card. Rockin Charli was making her first start of 2026, and it was her second career win in six career starts. The win was also a new lifetime mark for the lightly raced filly, who raced on the Indiana Sired Fair Circuit last year. The second division of the Miss Windfall was won by Mystical Night, driven by Clint Coy. The sophomore daughter of Capt Midnight rallied out to the lead and was a clear winner at the end, winning by five lengths in 1:56.1. Kobe’s Nani and Brandon Bates finished second over Elliana Grace and LeWayne Miller for third. Mystical Night paid $4.00 for the win. She is owned by Sheila Parcher and trained by Clint Coy. She was sold from the Pond-A-Acres consignment in the Hoosier Classic Yearling Sale late in the second session for $15,000. Her second dam is the mother of Illinois standout Mystical Victress with a mark of 1:50 and more than $846,000. It was the first carer win for Mystical Night, who was making her second start of 2026 and her fifth overall.
