Last year's Governor's Plate champion No Plan Intended was back on red soil on Saturday evening for a winning trip at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The $3,600 Preferred Pace had Matticulous GB (Ken Murphy) fire from the inside post and hit the quarter in :27.4. The half was up in :56.1 with No Plan Intended (Jason Hughes) starting his motion first-over and drawing into contention at the three-quarters of 1:25.1. In the final quarter, No Plan Intended took control and fended off race favourite Twin B Tuffenuff (Gilles Barrieau) for the winning mile of 1:53.4 with Matticulous GB third.
