Wind Blown Picked In Summerside Preferred Clash

Racing action at Red Shores Summerside

A top level pacing feature will highlight the Tuesday, Sept. 16 program at Red Shores Summerside Raceway.

The 14-dash presentation starts at 6 p.m. (ADT).

The $5,000 Preferred 2 Pace lines up in race 13 with 5-2 morning line favourite Wind Blown drawing post six for trainer Phil Sizer and driver Paul Langille. A winner of more than $377,000 lifetime, the eight-year-old Mach Three-Wind Warning gelding was racing in Ontario before relocating East. Now with two Summerside starts to his credit, he has been unbeaten since returning to the East Coast for owners Doug Polley Jr., and Doug Polley Sr., of Amherst, N.S. Stablemate Brookdale Johnny has post three with Brady Sweet aboard.

Mantario gets morning line respect at 3-1 from post four after a string of sharp efforts for trainer/driver David Dowling as he looks to add to his five wins on the campaign.

Starship Glyde, to be driven by Adam Merner, looms as another top contender from post five for trainer Earl Watts.

A pair of Tyne Valley horses hold down the inside as Sauble Attack (Ken Murphy) has rail control for trainer Paul Biggar and Howmac Charmer (Corey MacPherson) hails from the Kyle Williams barn with post two.

The "Backstretch Beat" goes all-in on the veteran pacer Wind Blown: “A proven Preferred-class performer, Wind Blown brings serious back class from the [Woodbine Entertainment] circuit and has been sharp since arriving locally. Paul Langille has the lines and will be looking to trip him out off live cover. His late kick is as strong as any in here.”

Earlier on the card, the $3,350 Peter Coughlin Memorial in race three has Smilin In Heaven installed as the 5-2 morning line favourite for driver Gary Chappell and trainer Stacey Darrach. The four-year-old Rockin In Heaven-Keep Smiling mare was second in her last start and looks to break through from post seven. Applepiemoonshine (Ryan Desroche) is a major factor from post six at 7-2 odds, along with Clair Sweet trainee Gabby Seelster (Brady Sweet) from post two.
