Test Of Faith wins qualifier in 1:57.3

At 0h20, on April 20, 2022 By HARRAH'S PHILADELPHIA

The 2021 Harness Horse of the Year, Test Of Faith, won her first racetrack appearance of 2022 during Tuesday morning (April 19) qualifying at Harrah’s Philadelphia, with a neck victory in 1:57.3 on a cold day.

David Miller kept the 4-year-old daughter of Art Major–Cannae Cammie in the two-hole as She Knows It All put up crawling fractions of :30.1, :59.4, and 1:28.3. Down by 1-1/2 lengths at the stretch call, Test Of Faith had enough in her first start back to hold off a late burst by Virgo, with High Minded another neck back in third.

Brett Pelling trains the winner of $1.56 million for owners Melvin Segal, Kentuckiana Racing Stable, and Eddie Gran.

Pelling has indicated that his planned first start for the mare is in the Graduate Series on Saturday (May 7), so there may be another qualifier in the works next week before Test Of Faith goes into a race.
