Part Shark Euthanized
Trot Insider has learned that former Gold Cup & Saucer champion Part Shark was euthanized after suffering a catastrophic injury before his race Friday night
at Western Fair District.
Secret Weapon Stables' Part Shark put together a career record reading 25-21-12 in 100 starts while banking $366,425 in purses. Among his biggest wins were the 2010 Gold Cup & Saucer in a career-best 1:51, which still stands as the all-age track record at Charlottetown Driving Park, and the 2010 City of Greater Sudbury Pace in 1:52.4, which was an all-age track record at the time.
The six-year-old Four Starzz Shark-Pop Art gelding was trained by Mark Austin as a youngster before moving into Wayne Preszcator's care for the remainder of his career.
