Jersey Kiss won the fourth race on the Fourth of July at Monmouth Park and has been named the agameofskill.com Claimer of the Week. Jersey Kiss, a 6 year old gelding, stalked a pair of embattled pacesetters and took the lead just past the quarter pole and rolled to victory under jockey Victor Santiago. The son of Defrere covered the 6 furlongs in 1:11.37 while winning by an easy 4 lengths over the $5,000 claiming field. The Ed Coletti trainee recorded his fifth career win and returned $9.20 to his supporters. Owned by Albert Harris, Jersey Kiss has now finished in the money in 13 of 29 lifetime races and has career earnings exceeding $252,000.
