Benefitting from the absence of Mr Finlay Ridge, Dusty Lane Milo has put together a two-race win streak, but the pair will collide again Thursday evening (Sept. 10) in the P.E.I. Colt Stakes at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.

The 13-dash Thursday card has a 6 p.m. start time and will feature the P.E.I. Colt Stakes for two-year-old trotters in Race 1 and 3, as well as the three-year-old trotters in a single division (Race 7).

Mr Finlay Ridge is the morning line choice in Race 3, which carries a $6,000 purse and a five-horse field. The Armbro Barrister–R Rocket Rachel colt is a homebred of Arnold Rankin of Antigonish, N.S., and is co-owned with fellow 'bluenosers' Clare MacDonald and Ian Tate. MacDonald trains and drives the four-time winner who has not made a start since August 18 (he was not eligible to the last two stakes events). Dusty Lane Milo capitalized on that absence with wins in the Lady Slipper stakes and the $17,250 Brian Andrew Memorial for driver Adam Merner and trainer Ron Gass.

In the other $6,000 rookie colt split (Race 1), A Little Go Go from the Marc Campbell stable is the most experienced in the field from the Marc Campbell stable. A Little Go Go is owned by Grayland Farm of Gulf Shore, N.S. Campbell is set to drive the son of Tad The Stud from Post 4.

The three-year-old trot class drew just eight entries, and will thus race in a single $10,000 division. The triactor trio of Mabou Ridge, Tequila Tuesday and Go With Her have all yet to finish outside of the top three this season and they will battle again on Thursday. Tequila Tuesday has rail control in the sophomore event for driver Myles Heffernan Sr., trainer Myles Heffernan Jr., and owner Jackie Heffernan of Summerville. The Armbro Barrister – Tymal Maroma colt has two wins, three seconds and a third from six seasonal starts for $23,144 in earnings. Mabou Ridge will start from Post 5 for trainer-driver MacDonald, while Go With Her has Post 7 for the duo of driver Brodie MacPhee and trainer Kuri White.
