Pasta Momma Added To The Red Shores Mix

Harness Racing at Charlottetown Driving Park

The Fillies & Mares Preferred Pace renews again on Thursday, June 6 with Pasta Momma coming into the mix at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.

The capital oval will showcase 11 dashes on Thursday evening with a 6 p.m. start time.

The $3,700 Fillies & Mares Preferred Pace in Race 10 has Pasta Momma making her Island debut from post three for driver Marc Campbell, trainer Landon Campbell and owners Brady Doyle and Ryan and Everett MacLeod. The four-year-old daughter of Huntsville is a new addition to the Campbell family stable as the winner of 12 races has been competing in the Open Mares ranks at Rosecroft Raceway, where she won in 1:54.1 earlier this season.

Tobins Brownie had been the hot horse in this class with three straight Preferred Pace victories for trainer-driver David Dowling, but she went down to defeat last week to have her streak snapped. Tobins Brownie has post four this week.

The one who snapped that Tobins Brownie win streak was Rosetown Mary, who leaves from post five on Thursday for trainer-driver Corey MacPherson. The Pang Shui mare was a front-end victor in 1:55.2 in that May 30 start for the 12th win of her career.

Plain Jane has rail control from the Campbell stable with Brady Sweet picking up the catch-drive.

Share The Moment rides a trio of third-place finishes into a post two start for driver Gilles Barrieau and trainer Bo Ford.

The Post Time Picks likes Rosetown Mary to win from post five: “MacPherson put Rosetown Mary on the engine last week and led at every call scoring in 1:55.2. She may not get that trip this week but with her strong finishing kick she could double up at Red Shores.”

The top trot of the evening is in the fourth race with a $3,100 purse at stake. Jessiejesorjessica (David Dowling) is the favourite from post four for trainer Jennifer Doyle with Atlantic champion Irish Ray (Marc Campbell) returning from Pennsylvania to leave from post three.
