Eighth Wonder led wire-to-wire to dominate her first two career starts here and kept the ball rolling with yet another romp in the Saturday co-feature at Parx Racing. A 22-1 upset winner on debut going 5 1/2 furlongs Sept. 19, bettors found no such value on the bay next out when she demolished an allowance field as the 1-5 chalk over trip and track Oct. 27. Hammered down to similar favoritism in this this event restricted to fillies who have spent 90 days in South Carolina and are nominated to the South Carolina Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association, she broke on top and opened up a three-length advantage through a quarter-mile in :22.42. Well off the rail, Eighth Wonder was never threatened and crossed the wire in full control. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by Fasig-Tipton.
