CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – A talented group of distaffers and a deep trotting field anchor the Tuesday evening presentation at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The 13-dash offering starts at 6 P.M., headlined by the Race 12 Fillies & Mares Preferred Pace carrying a $4,650 purse.
Race 12 brings together a familiar cast of mares in a PEISHOA event including Windemere Saddy, the 5-2 morning line favourite for driver Marc Campbell and owners Shane Esson, Saul Lanigan, Darcy Doyle and Isaac Schurman. The razor-sharp daughter of Malicious is putting in a record year with over $38,000 earned along with seven victories in her four-year-old campaign. The Lanigan trainee draws post 1 in her bid to control the action.
Brokeandoutofgas (6-1) will try to turn the tables with Paul Langille in the bike from post 2 for trainer Tammy Collings.
Shake N Blake (4-1) is no stranger to big efforts at this level and gets post 3 for trainer Jennifer Doyle and driver David Dowling.
Also in the mix are Rosetown Mary (7-2), a mare who does her best work late with trainer-driver Corey MacPherson along with the ultra-hot Therealprincess (3-1) with Gilles Barrieau for trainer Ron Matheson.
The Post Time Picks go with Windemere Saddy to win.
“Windemere Saddy beat this group last week, and she did it the hard way, first-over and kept grinding right to the wire. With rail control, Marc could use her great gate speed to lead and control the tempo from start to finish.”
Race 10 is the $4,200 Open Trot with a classy crew of square-gaiters as New Legacy (Driven by Dowling) headlines the event from post 3 from the Doyle stable at 5-2 odds.
Whole Nother (4-1) has the rail for driver Colin Sheppard and trainer Morgan Sheppard while the Ashley Gamester trained Fight Song (3-1) has post 2 with Jason Hughes aboard.
Helpfull Princess (6-1) gets post 4 for trainer Trevor Hicken and driver Adam Merner with Rocket Blast (7-2) getting trainer Corey MacPherson in the bike from post 5.
