When the race came out of turn three, the field started to bunch and Center Attraction had made her way to fifth, second-over on the outside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Forgot Thewallet A stalled at three-quarters so Center Attraction tipped three-deep around her in the last turn. At the top of the lane, Center Attraction drew even with Imprincessgemma A and then confidently pulled away to the line where she won by a length in 1:56.1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was the third win of the year for Center Attraction ($10.80) who is owned by her trainer Robert Anderson, in partnership with Pamela Schieber.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leading all drivers for wins on Tuesday were Joe Chindano Jr., who had a natural hat trick in races one, two and three and Dave McNeight III, who matched Chindano&#8217;s output with a natural hat trick of his own in races eight, nine and 10.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Live racing resumes at Batavia Downs on Wednesday (Aug. 7) at 6 p.m.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Free full card past performance programs for every live card of racing at Batavia can always be downloaded at the Downs\u2019 website (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fbataviadownsgaming.com%2F&amp;data=05%7C02%7C%7C39e83a1a0db34efeb94408dcb694be15%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638585997211981061%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=tMd2Oab%2FPhqq8cCWtsHZOC2M3ssXpjSg9L2QovqEq5A%3D&amp;reserved=0\">bataviadownsgaming.com<\/a>) under the \u201cLive Racing\u201d tab and all the racing action can be viewed as it happens for free at the Batavia Downs Live Facebook page.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tim Bojarski for Batavia Downs (Photos courtesy of Wendy J.
