After back-to-back near misses in the Preferred ranks at Rideau Carleton Raceway, Stonebridge Magnum drove away to an impressive victory
in Sunday’s $14,000 main event.
Gord Brown was paired up with the five-year-old son of The Panderosa, who was forced to deal with a first-over trip en route to the win. Stonebridge Magnum got away third before launching his uncovered bid against race leader Bentouttashape. Stonebridge Magnum used a :29.3 final quarter to propel himself to the 2-1/4 length decision over Peenie in a time of 1:55.4. Tyber King came on late to grab the third-place cheque.
