Advance Ticket Notches 10th Career Victory
The 6-year-old mare Advance Ticket recorded her 10th career victory Sunday when she charged from sixth in a field of eight to win the $40,652 allowance feature at Golden Gate Fields.
Advance Ticket, ridden by Abel Cedillo, ran down 9-5 favorite Sister Kate and jockey Russell Baze in the final furlong to capture the six-furlong sprint for fillies and mares by one length. Belle Passe, ridden by Inoel Beato, finished third.
Trained by Dennis Patterson, Advance Ticket clocked a time of 1:10.26 and paid $27.40 after being dismissed at odds of 12-1. In her previous start on Sept. 8 at Golden Gate Fields, Advance Ticket battled for the early lead and then faded to finish last in a field of six.
Michelle MacDonald owns and bred Advance Ticket, a California-bred daughter of Formal Gold. Advance Ticket earned $24,960 for Sunday’s victory and has banked $243,894 in 37 career starts. Advance Ticket has 28 in-the-money finishes.
