Clark On Adios Pick, Wild Rose Action
With at least one of his own pupils in each of the six Adios Pick and Wild Rose stakes divisions this Saturday at Grande Prairie, soon-to-be Hall of Famer Keith Clark has shared his thoughts on his prospects with track announcer Sugar Doyle
.
Starting from Post 2 in the fourth race, the second of three $16,666 Adios Pick divisions for sophomore colts, Wrangler Hitech is listed as the 2-1 morning line favourite. Clark shares ownership of As Promised-Raines Lucey colt with Robert Jones and Peter Giannakopolous.
“I’m glad we drew away from Ron Graham’s horse (Sixdaysontheroad),” Clark said in Doyle’s Daily Herald-Tribune column. “We’ve got a good inside post and he’s coming into it okay.”
On the filly side, Clark likes his chances with Lady And Thetrench, the 5-2 second choice behind Lynettes Legacy in the second race, the second of three Wild Rose divisions. Clark owns the daughter of Armbro Trench-Cambests Lady with Pat Elynuik and John Hind.
“She’s drawn okay [Post 3] as well and she looks to have a pretty good shot at the win.”
A live telecast of the final Adios Pick and Wild Rose divisions (Races 8 and 9) will air Saturday on CTV from 3-4 p.m.
