Three-year-old pacing fillies from across the Maritimes will meet for some serious competition at Truro Raceway on Sunday, June 7. It will mark the first time this season the Truro track has hosted an Atlantic Sires Stakes event, and the excitement trackside is sure to be high.

There will be three 'A' divisions each going for a $7,120 purse. The two 'B' divisions will carry $2,500 purses.

This is the second time this season the three-year-old fillies have competed in Atlantic Sires Stakes action. They last met on May 18 at Fredericton Raceway.
