E R Quinn had his Thursday night winning streak cut short last week, and with an outside post this week's feature is wide open at Red Shores’ Charlottetown Driving Park.

The 11-dash Thursday program will kick off at 6:30 p.m. The $2,400 top pace will line up for Race 10.

E R Quinn will be shouldered with Post 8, but has retained the services of top Canadian percentage driver Gilles Barrieau for trainer Jeff Holmes and owner Orwell Bay Stable. Likely To Win, who has been known to go on hot streak in Thursday night features, is set to start from Post 2 this week for driver Adam Merner.

Race analyst Les MacIsaac is siding with Post 5 starter Zero Rate to score a mild upset in the competitive field for driver Kenny Arsenault and trainer Michael Gallant.

"Zero Rate is a rallying threat and if there are some quick early fractions, which is possible, it could be right up his alley," MacIsaac said. "If he gets some live flow and a cover trip to bring him into it late his chances go way up."

The field will also feature Midnight Matt (to be driven by Jason Hughes), Perfect Escape (Ron Matheson), Harbourlite Jerry (Steven Shepherd), Rockin Indy (David Dowling) and Hes Marvalous (Myles Heffernan Sr.).

The $2,400 Open Trot will line up for Race 7 with a newcomer ready to take on the defending champion. Freddie has been nothing short of dominant in this class for years, but now Star Photo will make the trip east and will take his shot from Post 3 for new trainer Kevin Gillis and driver Hughes. Star Photo won in a personal season’s-best 2:00 in his latest start, which came at The Raceway at Western Fair District in Ontario. Star Photo will be looking to add to his $366,000 in career earnings Thursday evening. Freddie is slated to start from Post 5 in the field of as many. Marc Campbell will be in the bike as the morning line favourite.
