With her Atlantic stakes career in the rearview mirror, Maggiesdelight will try to capture all the glory in the P.E.I. Colt Stakes Graduate Series mares final on Thursday evening (Sept. 21) at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The 14-dash program kicks off at 6 p.m., with the P.E.I. Colt Stakes Graduate Series mares final, presented by JD Marine and Diving Inc., and the P.E.I. Standardbred Breeders Association in race eight for a $9,500 purse.
Corey MacPherson will drive the favoured Maggiesdelight from post two for co-owner and trainer Michelle Myers and co-owner Roger MacDonald. The five-year-old daughter of Steelhead Hanover has banked $52,883 in her career while winning 15 dashes. Other top entries include Havarti (Paul Langille) from post three and Outrageous Style (David Dowling) with post six.
The "Post Time Picks" place Maggiesdelight in the win column: "Maggiesdelight was third best in this group her last start in this series but had the far outside that day. She gets a solid post draw for the final and will be able to defend her post from the start in here. If the fractions are right, victory will be hers."
The evening card also features the Brian Andrew Memorial Stakes for two-year-old trotters in races two and six. Atlantic record holder Dusty Lane Wee (Dowling) is the favourite off the rail in the $11,175 filly division in race six from the Lenny Myers barn.
Rocket Blast (MacPherson) rides a three-race win streak into race two for a $11,175 pot in the two-year-old colt event from the Carl Bagnall barn.
