Rose Run Quest and Czar Seelster have proven to be the top pacers on the Eastern Seaboard of Canada but Euchred could have something to say about that in Invitational action Sunday afternoon at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.

There will be 13 dashes on tap Sunday afternoon at the Prince County half-miler including a $3,500 Invitational pace in race 12 with the best pacers in Atlantic Canada. Rose Run Quest was a narrow winner over Czar Seelster in his latest start for trainer-driver Marc Campbell and owner Blair Hansen of Charlottetown, P.E.I. The six-year-old son of If I Can Dream finished third in the $60,000 Guardian Gold Cup and Saucer final the start prior during Old Home Week racing at Red Shores Charlottetown.

Old Home Week was also kind to Czar Seelster, who captured the $20,000 James (Roach) MacGregor Gold Cup and Saucer consolation then just fell short of Rose Run Quest last week. While those two pacers are heralded as the top picks, race analyst Bo Ford is headed in a different direction as Euchred, the dominant pacer from the first part of the season, has drawn post 2 with David Dowling in the bike for the first time behind the Terry Gallant trainee.

“We’re playing a hunch on this horse,” Ford said. “Euchred will prove to be mighty tough off the front Sunday and with the inside post and Dave Dowling at the helm, the rest of them may want to make sure they have their holders in place.”

Other entrants in the Invitational pace are Do Over Hanover (Jason Hughes), Red Magician (Adam Merner), Winter Blast (Kyle Gillis) and Tobinator (Corey MacPherson).

After The Lovin puts her undefeated career on the line. She's slated to compete in race 5 for a $1,350 purse, with Dowling at the lines for trainer Earl Watts and owners Windemere Farms of Hampshire, P.E.I., and River Valley Management of New Brunswick. The two-year-old daughter of Carnivore is a sister to Maritime Champion Lovineveryminute, and is looking to make a name for herself with no blemishes at this early point of her two-race career.

The Sunday program is the final day of the $100,000 Dash For Cash Promotion.
