Bunny Mach Scores Fifth Straight
Bunny Mach continued her perfect streak while racing for trainer Sean MacSwain on Wednesday afternoon as she notched her fifth consecutive victory at Flamboro Downs.
With three-time Wednesday winner Robert Shepherd in the sulky, Bunny Mach fired to command from post seven in the eight-horse field and went wire-to-wire in 1:56.1. Pocket-sitter Indeman (J.R. Plante) came within a quarter length of the winner down the stretch while Puff Mommy (James MacDonald) trailed seven lengths back in third. The 2-1 favourite returned $6.30 to her backers.
Two wins into her current streak on Nov. 27, the seven-year-old daughter of Mach Three was claimed for $10,000 at Western Fair District by MacSwain.
Wednesday's score was the 11th this year for the mare and 26th lifetime, pushing her career bankroll to $227,439.
The 11th race triumph capped off a perfect day for MacSwain, who also scored with his other starter, Terem Up Louie, earlier on the card. The win was the sophomore Rambaran gelding's second in a row.
