After pacing hard with the top pacers in Prince County her last two starts, Filly Forty Seven returns to the capital oval against her fellow gals Saturday (Nov. 6) at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
Saturday afternoon has a 14-dash program starting off at 12:30 p.m. featuring the Fillies and Mares Preferred Pace in Race 13.
Filly Forty Seven has Post 2 in the class after racing the Horse and Gelding preferred pacers at Summerside Raceway her last two starts against pacing horses. The Marc Campbell-trained and driven daughter of Proven Lover was second both those tries being beat by Invitational pacers Bugsy Maguire and Screen Test. The 40-time winning mare is owned by Alan MacDonald, Cory Carver and Katelyn Smallwood.
Ladylike is the morning line favourite off the rail in the $3,100 class with David Dowling driving for trainer Colin Johnson. The field also includes Do U Mind (Mark Bradley), Larjon Legacy (Adam Merner) and The Time To Win (Ken Murphy).
Peter MacPhee says Ladylike is the one to beat as he places her on top of the Post Time Picks.
“Ladylike has put together a tidy season and already has five wins on her resume. Don’t forget she was a former track record holder and can really fly home, so we say Dowling gets her to the winner’s circle again.”
The card also has $5,000 divisions of the P.E.I. Harness Racing Industry Association Fall Challenge Series in Races 5, 6 and 9 as well as P.E.I.H.R.I.A. Autumn Series divisions in Races 2 and 3. Both series are for four-year-old and younger non-winners pacers.
Southwind Arturo returns to P.E.I. in the first race after a season racing the stakes circuit in New Jersey. The two-year-old son of Muscle Hill finds himself back in the Campbell barn after trotting in 1:56 his last start over Freehold Raceway’s half-mile oval.
