Prairie Lily Pace Set To Go
The fields have been drawn for the Prairie Lily Pace, which will take place Friday, August 12 at the Yorkton Exhibition. The event, for Canadian-sired aged pacing mares, is sponsored by Standardbred Canada and the Saskatchewan Standardbred Breeders and Owners Association
.
The connections of 11 distaffers entered their charges to contest the stakes event, which will be contested in two divisions (Race 3, 4) on Yorkton's eight-dash docket. The card will kick off with a 5:45 p.m. first-race post time.
A field of five lasses is scheduled to head behind the gate for the first division, which carries a $4,300 purse. The Tyler Redwood-trained and driven Power Maid will start from Post 4, and the six-year-old daughter of Goliath Bayama will be looking to build off her 2:00.4, gate-to-wire score which came over Yorkton last week.
The second division, which carries a $4,400 purse and is scheduled to house six lasses, will feature the Elaine Bell-trained and Blake Piwniuk-driven Marlowe from Post 4. The five-year-old daughter of As Promised was also a wire-to-wire winner last week, as she posted a three quarters of one length win, also in 2:00.4.
