Rennison Triples At Summerside; Wednesday Qualifiers Cancelled

Lovemattersmost

Trainer George Rennison came from Truro Raceway and bagged a training triple on the Tuesday (June 18) evening card at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.

Rennison won with Lovemattersmost (Paul Langille; pictured above) in 1:56, Resuscitate (Langille) in 1:58.1 and Just Another Beach (Ken Murphy) in 2:02.4.

His swiftest winner, Lovemattersmost, romped in his $2,450 class as Langille steered him through splits in :28.4, :58.1, and 1:27.4. Lovemattersmost broke away from the field early with a five length advantage and he just continued to open up all the way to an 8-1/2 length score in 1:56 over Mr William (Corey Macpherson) and Justa Country Boy (Darren Crowe). 

Rennison trains the sophomore Proven Lover - Mattadors Rose gelding for Rebecca Mae Horton, Blair Maclauchlan, and Jeffrey Lilley. Lovemattersmost returned $5.90 to win.

Langille also won with 13-year-old veteran pacer Rusty Riley in a sharp 1:55.4 score from his own stable for the driving triple.

Melody Maker was forwardly placed in the evening feature and had no trouble holding his position for victory.

Corey MacPherson sent the Greg MacInnis owned and trained pacer off the wings and protected the rail for every step of the mile in the $3,250 feature. Melody Maker laid down fractions of :27.3, :57.4, 1:26.4 and 1:55.2 to win over Brumby (Driven by Darren Crowe) and Sauble Attack (Ken Murphy). Favoured Howmac Maximus got away fourth and made a first-over bid at the half-mile station but finished fourth.

The feature win was part of a MacPherson driving triple as the Cornwall reinsman also visited the winner’s circle with Tobins Hottie (1:57) for trainer Paul Bernard and Here Comes Emmett (2:00.3) for trainer Melvin Gamester.

Devon Wallace scored a double as a trainer-driver with Rollwithitdarling (1:59) and Silver Spirit (1:59.2).

Total wager was $96,974 on the 13-dash program.

Live racing continues next Tuesday (June 25) at Red Shores Summerside.
