Meadowlands Racetrack hosted the final Breakfast with the Babies session of the month on Friday, June 26 under cloudy conditions with temperatures in the mid-70's and a track listed as fast.


Making the biggest splash of the morning, Kountry Plunge showed signs of why she attracted a final bid of $277,778 in Lexington last fall. The daughter of Chapter Seven from world champion Plunge Blue Chip cut all the fractions in her BWTB debut, towing trainer-driver Ake Svanstedt through fractions of :29.3, :58.3 and 1:27.4 before closing in :27.1 for the 1:55 jaw-dropper to win the fifth dash and post the fastest two-year-old trotting mile this season in North America. Extremely Tactical (Todd McCarthy) was next best, more than six lengths back, with Done And Dusted (Bartlett) in for third.


Kountry Plunge was bred by Kountry Lane Standardbred LLC of Nappanee, Ind., with ownership now in the hands of Obm Stable of Delray Beach, Fl., Svanstedt & Midnight Sun of Wrightstown, N.J., Bender Sweden Inc. of Vero Beach, Fl and Ecurie Diocles Ab of Sigtuna, Sweden.
