Published: August 8, 2020 11:05 pm EDT

Rolling into contention late, Wheely Twicky landed at the finish first to narrowly win in the $7,200 fourth preliminary for the Prospect Series Three-Year-Old Filly Trot on Saturday (Aug. 8) at Kawartha Downs.

Royal Peach set the pace through opening fractions of :28.3 and :57.1 with Muscles Aplenty sitting second and Wheely Twicky third. Muscles Aplenty pounced on the pacesetter moving to three-quarters in 1:26.4 and managed to take the lead moving into the stretch. Yet Wheely Twicky tracked the late leader’s move and gathered momentum in the stretch to lunge by and win by a head in 1:58. Just T rallied from last for third.

Co-owned by trainer Corrie German and Brenda German, Wheely Twicky won her first race from five starts, earning $5,212. Mario Baillargeon drove the $20.70 winner.
