Shadowmoon Rising and Docsphillycheese continued their winning ways on Friday (Aug. 5) at Grand River Raceway.

Shadowmoon Rising went wire-to-wire to capture a $7,200 Prospect Series race for three-year-old pacing colts.

The sophomore stopped the clock in a lifetime best time of 1:54 for driver Tyler Borth and trainer Shayne Barrington, finishing a quarter length in front of runner-up Night Out (Brett MacDonald). Maskedman (Bruce Richardson) was third.

Shadowmoon Rising, a son of Shadow Play, is on a three-race winning streak, with his three victories in 10 starts this year all coming in the past three outings. He's earned $18,500 for owners Rick Rier of Hanover, Ont., Paul Berberich of Walkerton, Ont., and Ontario Limited of Hanover, Ont.

Docsphillycheese, meanwhile, posted a fourth consecutive victory by taking another $7,200 Prospect Series race for three-year-old pacing colts.

Garrett Rooney drove the son of Betterthancheddar to a 1:55.3 win, a new lifetime mark, ahead of Can Be A Treasure (Travis Henry) and Hp Momentum (Jonathan Hahn). Docsphillycheese took the lead by the three-quarters and beat Can Be A Treasure by half a length.
