After returning to her home base of Saratoga for one start last week, the 8-year-old came back to the Downs and took full advantage of a class drop to simply jog in a personal season\u2019s best effort as she won the featured $11,100 pace for fillies and mares on Wednesday (Aug. 13) night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jim Morrill Jr. got away third with Waitforever N as Forgot Thewallet A (Joe Chindano Jr.) skated to the half in :55.2. It was there that Morrill pulled Waitforever N and quickly overtook Forgot Thewallet A to gain control of the race as they passed five-eighths. Waitforever N then reached three-quarters in 1:23.3 in front by 1-\u00bd lengths before entering the last turn and separating from the field. When she reached the top of the stretch, Waitforever N was on top by 2-\u00bc lengths and then swelled up and bolted home unchallenged to win by 4-\u00be lengths in 1:52.4.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It was the fifth win in the last seven starts for the heavily backed Waitforever N ($2.90) who is owned by Stephen Picarazzi, Darreyl Bullard and her trainer, Brett Derue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Morrill, along with Kevin Cummings and Drew Monti all had three driving wins on Wednesday while trainers Brett Derue, Maria Rice and Sam Smith scored two wins apiece.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Live racing resumes at Batavia Downs on Thursday (Aug. 14) with post time at 6 p.m.&nbsp;when the New York Sire Stakes will return with $110,000 in purse money available for the best 2-year-old pacing fillies bred in the state.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%7C81cae240d45c41773f2408dddada44fb%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C638907353181123487%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&amp;sdata=6pxrDqJgXv6e%2Btcf856ZtTcV2UXL8c3qpZp5ZBFJ8hI%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 Stream on YouTube.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tim Bojarski, for Batavia Downs Gaming (Photos courtesy of Wendy J.
