Plante gave Allard back-to-back wins with the six-year-old Dream Vacation gelding Critic Vacation, who scored in 2:00.3 for co-owners Isaac Waxman and Brenda Selwyn Waxman of Dundas, Ont.

Zeron and Perle Duharas later captured the eighth race by seven and three-quarter lengths in 1:56.1 for Allard and co-owners Robert Cloutier of Montreal and Ferme Bureau Et Fils Senc.
