JJ Powerball Takes On Sunday's Best

A field of hard-hitting pacers will convene Sunday afternoon and a horse fresh out of Invitational action is pegged as the one to beat at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.

The 12-dash Sunday afternoon presentation kicks off at 1:00 P.M. with the $2,600 top class assembling in the finale.

JJ Powerball last competed in the Johnny Conroy Memorial Invitational at Truro Raceway in Bible Hill, N.S., finishing fourth while pacing in 1:54.3 for trainer Wade Sorrie. That mile puts the target squarely on his back as the top pick but he has his work cut out for him from post seven. Dale Spence will do the driving on Sunday as the son of Image Of Dawn looks for his 12th lifetime win for owners Austin Sorrie of Ontario and Tammy Collings of Hazel Brook.

Mando Fun has rail control in the top event with Gilles Barrieau in the bike for co-owner and trainer Paul Biggar of Tyne Valley and co-owner Donald Callbeck of Kensington. Best To Hurst has post two with Walter Cheverie driving for trainer Earl Watts while former top class winner Phil Dorleans (Jason Hughes) leaves from post three. Dangle Ona Dime (Corey MacPherson) has post four with Soccer Hanover (John Davidson) lining up from post five. Heartland Eclipse cut out all the action last week and had to settle for a minor share. He gets leading driver David Dowling in the bike on Sunday from post six. The far outside post eight belongs to Red Magician with Adam Merner in the bike for trainer Melissa Rennie.

The afternoon back-up pace hits the track in the ninth race with Ramset the top pick in the $2,300 class for combination of driver Dowling and Red Shores Summerside's leading trainer Elton Millar. The Rambaran pacer was a second-place finisher his last time out for owners Ryan and Everett MacLeod of Souris. Other top entries include Heart And Soul (Cheverie) and Mantario (Norris Rogers).
