The battle is set for the top event on a special Tuesday evening program at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.
The Prince County track has 11 dashes scheduled for a 6 p.m. start time with the $3,000 featured pace hitting the track in race 10.
The evenly matched field features G A Speed Sammy as the morning line favourite from the outside post five for driver David Dowling, trainer Colin Johnson and owner Debbie Element of Village Green, P.E.I. The Shanghai Phil seven-year-old has earned 25 wins in his career from 82 starts.
Screen Test has post four in the contest fresh off a pair of second place finishes at Red Shores Charlottetown. The former Alberta standout will have regular driver Corey MacPherson in the bike for trainer Ron Gass.
The "Backstretch Beat" likes Screen Test on top: “Screen Test can do it from the front or from the back. He’s been a great horse since moving here from Alberta and MacPherson gets the best out of him so we’ll place him squarely in the win column.”
Rounding out the field are My Land (to be driven by Jason Hughes) from the inside post, Hunger Pangs (Ken Murphy) from post two and Coasttocoastshark (Devon Wallace) from post three.
Murphy continues to lead the dash race with 32 driving wins in Summerside in 2022. Dowling sits second with 27 wins while MacPherson holds down third with 19 victories. The top trainer standings have Earl Watts and Wade Sorrie tied with nine wins each in 2022 at Red Shores Summerside.
Azure Beach makes his East Coast debut in race three of the evening with David Dowling in the seat of the Darla MacEachern trainee from post five going for $2,050 purse. The son of Sunshine Beach had been racing at Rideau Carleton Raceway outside Ottawa with MacEachern now co-owning along with Jason Sherry and Tim Merzetti. Beach Day is the morning line favourite in the race as the three-year-old daughter of Betting Line makes her career debut from post two for driver MacPherson and trainer Gass.
