Twin B Tuffenuff Takes On Monday’s Best
A rescheduled Monday, Sept. 18 evening program will have Twin B Tuffenuff headlining the Preferred Pace at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The Patrick Morris-owned pacer is the 5-2 morning line favourite in the race 12, $3,800 Preferred Pace in honour of the St Peters Volunteer Fire Department. The 13-dash card gets underway at 6 p.m. on Monday evening after the program was rescheduled from it’s normal Saturday time slot due to Hurricane Lee.
Twin B Tuffenuff will have Gilles Barrieau in the race bike from post four. The Ron Matheson trainee was second to Bee Two Bee in his track record performance his last start on Sept. 9.
Stash It Away was third that day in the 1:50.1 track record tying mile and has post two on Monday from the Kevin MacLean stable. Ken Murphy picks up the drive behind the 19-time winner.
Bettim Again was a winner in 1:53.4 his last start and gets David Dowling this week with post three for trainer Jeff Lilley.
Rail control in the $3,800 Preferred Pace belongs to the Jason Hughes-trained and driven Century Invictus while JK Last Chance and Kenny Arsenault leave from post five.
The "Post Time Picks" like Twin B Tuffenuff on top: “Twin B Tuffenuff was storming on the end of it two back and just missed getting the gold. He also gets a prime-time post to race from tonight and Barrieau is on a tear so we’re calling for top spot.”
Race nine is the Fillies and Mares Preferred Pace with $3,500 at stake. Barrieau drives the favoured Share The Moment for trainer Bo Ford with post four. Her chief rivals are slated as D Gs Elsa (Murphy) and Acefortyfour Dome (Hughes).
