Jennas Pass helped Hall of Fame horseman Keith Clark to a training-driving triple on Sunday afternoon at Alberta Downs with her dominant front end score in the $8,800 Fillies & Mares Open Pace
.
Clark fired the daughter of Freedoms Pass-Presidential Jenna to command from Post 5 and blazed to the opening quarter in :26.4. Following a breather to the half in :57.2, Jennas Pass clocked three-quarters in 1:25.3 and took aim for the wire. The six-year-old mare extended her two length lead to three by the time she reached the finish line in a career-best 1:53.1, which was one second off Pretty Promised's track record for aged pacing mares. Weareverigo (Bill Tainsh Jr.) and favourite With Bells On (Kelly Hoerdt) finished second and third while the winner's stablemate, Rossridge Fortune (Gerry Hudon), finished fourth.
Jennas Pass paid $5 to win for the fourth consecutive time as part of the 3-2 second choice entry. Clark claimed the bay mare with Macpherson Standardbreds of Edmonton and Verne Rea of Calgary for $12,500 from her last start on August 22 at Alberta Downs. The win was her sixth of the season in 15 outings, pushing her earnings to $22,360. The 17-time career winner watched her overall bankroll climb to $140,424.
Clark also won with his pupils Promise Me Pez ($6.90) and Modern Man ($8.80), while his other starters, Blue Star Charger, One Tough Pull and I Kan Dee, were runner-ups in their respective Sunday assignments.
