>After a two-month absence from the winner’s circle, Monochromatic returned to winning form thanks to her 1:52.3 victory in Monday’s $20,000 Mares Open Pace at Dover Downs.

Corey Callahan drove Monochromatic into the lead after San Fran Lady N took the field to the quarter in :26.1. From there to the finish line, Monochromatic had to ward off a strong challenge from Yagonnakissmeornot, driven by Ron Pierce, from mid-backstretch until deep in the lane. Monochromatic held on for a 1:52.3 decision. Cooking The Books closed from far back for Allan Davis to best San Fran Lady and Tony Morgan for place money.

The victory was the 47th in the career of the Dream Away-Miss Ty nine-year-old who now has banked $764,155 for North State Street Stable of Dover, Delaware.
