House Edge Hanover

House Edge Hanover had the last say in the $4,700 Preferred 2 Pace at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park on Sunday, Sept. 14.

House Edge Hanover ($3.10) collared Impeccable Shadow (Paul Langille) in deep stretch to win in 1:54.3 for driver Gilles Barrieau and trainer Ron Matheson. Sitting fifth through :29 and :58 panels, the Betting Line-Hug A Dragoness gelding moved second-over behind Impeccable Shadow through three-quarters in 1:26.3. He then swung wide coming off the final turn and surged past Impeccable Shadow and pacesetter Navalny (Brady Sweet) to score by three-quarters of a length. Impeccable Shadow finished second over Navalny.

House Edge Hanover is now 19-for-44 lifetime with $68,572 in earnings for owner Everette Hanson of Maugerville, N.B. He has won seven of 23 starts in his four-year-old campaign.

Barrieau and Matheson also clicked the race previous with The Sports Desk ($2.80), a 1:55.3 coast-to-coast winner.

The day opened with Neptune Seelster ($7.90) threading through late for a 1:56.2 victory in Race 1 for driver Adam Merner and trainer Michael Gallant. Merner doubled up as a trainer-driver in Race 5 as Maintenance Man ($5) controlled every step in 1:54.4 and Sports Teller ($5.80) won in 1:55 in Race 10.

Trainer Tammy Collings doubled on the 13-race card, with Silver Spirit ($2.30) scoring in 1:55.4 in line to Sweet in Race 9, and Gascoigne A C ($5.90) taking Race 2 in a sharp 1:55.2 for driver Marc Campbell, who had three wins on the day.
