Perfect Body and Seine hit victory lane in two of six $25,000 divisions of the fifth and final leg of the Kindergarten Series for 2-year-olds Friday night.

The $125,000 Kindergarten finals take place on Saturday, Oct. 31.

In the second of two dashes for filly pacers (race 4), Perfect Body, the New Jersey Sire Stakes Platinum and New Jersey Classic champion, rallied past 1-5 favorite JK Simcha before holding off a late-charging Perfect Hope Deo to record a 1:51.2 win, her fourth victory in 10 tries this year.

Perfect Body, a daughter of Perfect Sting-Sweet Body, ended up in the three-hole after leading at the quarter in :27.2 as JK Simcha took over and led at the half in :55.3 with Perfect Hope Deo in the pocket. Popping out of the three-hole on the far turn, Perfect Body was up to challenge JK Simcha at three-quarters, which went in 1:24, and cruised by that foe with an eighth-of-a-mile to go, before having to hold on by a slim, nerve-racking nose. Gift Of Faith was third.

“I thought John’s horse (Perfect Hope Deo, driven by Johnathan Ahle) got me last step, but after the fact, (my horse) won,” said winning driver Brett Beckwith. “She seemed to get better as the year went on. Unfortunately for her, the year is coming to an end just as she’s figuring it out. Hopefully, she comes back and has a big 3-year-old year.”

Perfect Body returned $6.80 to win as the 2-1 second choice for trainer Chris Choate.

Seine flexed his Kentucky Sire Stakes muscles in an impressive lifetime-best 1:50.4 score in the lone division for c**t and gelding pacers (race 8).

The son of Sweet Lou-Lock Bridge cleared to the lead at the three-eighths, but found himself in a tough spot when they reached three-quarters as Wishawave was on the lead (in 1:23) with the first-over Adios Hanover alongside to challenge as Aintmyfirstro Deo swung three-wide for the drive.

But despite Aintmyfirstro Deo grabbing the lead with an eighth-of-a-mile to go – after Seine turned for home with the top – Seine rallied determinedly along the inside and came back to end up 1½ lengths to the good at the finish. Debonaire was second with Aintmyfirstro Deo third.

“He’s a really nice horse,” said winning driver Joe Bongiorno, who also trains the gelding. “Unfortunately, we drew the eight hole in the Breeders Crown (elimination last week) and we just got nosed (finishing fifth) out to get a spot (in the final). This horse has a bright future. I think he’s just starting to develop and he’s going to make a nice 3-year-old horse next year.”

As the 1-5 favorite, Seine returned $2.60 after winning for the second time in nine tries.

Shezafreaklikeme with Stacy Chiodo won the Pink Out dash, a ladies’ driving series race to raise breast cancer awareness. The 8-year-old Sweet Lou-Nf One Rose product hit the wire in 1:54.3 in the TrackMaster 71 pace for fillies and mares and returned $4.40 as the 6-5 public choice.

Friday will mark the 10th of 11 legs of the competition. Those finishing in the top four take home prize money on a $500-250-150-100 basis, but the top two, they not only earn the top two cash prizes, but also cop spots in the five-figure final, where the winner will walk away with $5,000.
