The sophomore takes on the veteran on Sunday afternoon at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.
The Prince County oval will play host to 11 dashes on Sunday (August 4) with the first race of the presentation going postward at 1:00 p.m. The $2,800 Preferred 2 Pace in the tenth race is the top event of the day, with 2018 Governor’s Plate winner Czar Seelster the top choice from post five. Mike McGuigan picks up the drive for trainer Todd Weatherbee and owner Tammy Johnston of Stratford. The 10-year-old son of Stonebridge Regal shows 1:54-1:55 down his program page but will face a fresh challenge on Sunday afternoon in three-year-old pacer Mantario, who has drawn post two.
