Red Shores Summerside hosted three divisions of the Atlantic Aged Pacing Mares series on Sunday, June 19.
Ramblinglily and Walter Cheverie added their names to the history book when the six-year-old daughter of Articulator stopped the timer in 1:54.4 in a $2,980 division of the series to equal the track record for aged pacing mares set by Abby Best on August 28, 2009. The series is sponsored by Standardbred Canada, Red Shores and PEI Harness Racing Industry Association.
Trained by co-owner Allan Jones for Norman Leger of Shediac, N.B., Ramblinglily tracked down fraction-setter All Chocolate (Steven Shepherd) to notch her 39th lifetime victory and third in a row.
The other winners in the mares pacing series were Best Risque in 1:56.2 for Charlottetown trainer/co-owner Brian Ladner and driver Jason Hughes along with Dustylane MsVickie in 1:57.3 for trainer/driver Marc Campbell and Greyland Farms of Pugwash, N.S.
Motorino, with trainer/co-owner Terry Gallant in the bike, captured the afternoon's $2,300 top class in 1:57.1. The black pacing gelding turned back Bazzillion (Brian MacPhee) and Smiley Bayama (Ron Gass).
Marc Campbell had a driving triple. Wade Sorrie and Gallant posted driving doubles on the 14-dash program.
