Occasionally harness racing fans will get to see equine siblings compete against each other in a race.
But how about two entries in the same race, and it’s two brothers and sisters racing against each other? It’s happening Sunday, Oct. 30 at Hippodrome 3R.
The third race co-feature trot has the entry of Archimed Alpha and Stella Alpha entered against Kinderunbelievable and Kinnder Dangerzone .
Both Archimed Alpha (post two) and Stella Alpha (post eight) are sired by Royalty For Life from the foundation mare Eclair Chocolat. They were bred and are owned and trained by 3R’s leading trainer Sylvain Tremblay and the Alpha Stable of Metabetchouan.
Archimed Alpha will be driven by Francis Picard and comes into the race off a lifetime best 1:59.1 triumph, his second win of the year. He is four years old and the older brother of Stella Alpha.
Stella Alpha will have regular pilot Pascal Berube driving. She sports eight wins this year, seven of those wins right at 3R. This past week she won a qualifying race at 3R in 2:00.4. She is one of only two three-year-olds going against older horses.
Kinderunbelievable (post three) and Kinnder Dangerzone (post five) are both from the top broodmare Majestic Joy, and were bred, owned and are trained by Denitza Petrova of Melbourne. Kinderunbelievable is the older sister, sired by Archangel, at age six and Kinnder Dangerzone is a four-year-old stallion by Northern Escort.
Kinnder Dangerzone is the stronger part of the entry for driver Jonathan Lachance. He has four wins on the season, including a lifetime mark of 1:58.1.
Kinderunbelievable has but two wins on the season, but one was a lifetime best 1:57.4 triumph at Rideau Carleton Raceway. She will be driven by Pierre-Luc Roy.
Other contenders in the field include Morally Flexible (post seven), who has won two of his last three starts for driver Stephane Brosseau and Royalty Beer (post six), a four-time winner this season.
