Ramon Dominguez's Laurel Park homecoming party included time in the winner's circle, as he rode Harissa to victory in the $150,000, Grade II Barbara Fritchie Handicap for fillies and mares Saturday at Laurel Park.
Harissa, down from Belmont Park from the stable of Michael Hushion, sped through the seven-furlong distance in 1:23.65, finishing 21/4 lengths in front of Aspenglow, ridden by Travis Dunkelberger. Fascinatin' Rhythm finished third.
"I'd never ridden her before," said Dominguez, the 2010 Eclipse Award winner. "She advanced very nicely when I asked and after going by the leader drew off very nicely."
Dominguez, 34, called Maryland home from 2000 to 2004, winning 1,012 races at Laurel and Pimlico Race Course.
