Preliminary action from the Bobby Weiss Series will continue at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono this evening (Monday, April 15).

Developing three- and four-year-olds of both sexes and gaits will be contesting their $15,000 third (and final) preliminary legs tonight. The combatants will be hoping to solidify places in the $30,000 series championships – or perhaps a $15,000 consolation – that will start in one week (Monday, April 22).

Pacing fillies and mares will take to the track for Weiss action on Monday in three divisions. Undefeated in their first two preliminaries were Ghosttothepost (an American Ideal mare to be guided by George Napolitano Jr. for trainer Darren Ferrell from Post 5 in the fifth-race division) and the Art Major filly Ashlee Sparkles (who will start from Post 2 in Racer 11 for driver Matt Kakaley and trainer Blake MacIntosh). Both are morning line favourites in their respective divisions.

There were six different winners in the first two preliminaries of the distaff trotting Weiss Series. The only repeat winner was the Explosive Matter filly Spring In Paris, who was game to win by a neck in each of her Weiss starts. She has been installed as the morning line favourite for her Monday assignment (Race 11) and will start from Post 5 for trainer Steve LeBlanc and driver Andrew McCarthy.
