Migrant Worker overcame a slow start, wore down pacesetter Marmoe in mid-stretch and went on to win Wednesday’s $46,000 feature race at Hollywood Park by three lengths.

Ridden by Chris Antley, Migrant Worker equaled the track record of 1:20 4/5 for seven furlongs.

Migrant Worker lost a step at the start from the outside post but quickly recovered, stalking Marmoe until the early stretch and then taking command under Antley’s urging.
