The date change for the 2018 Guardian Gold Cup & Saucer has prompted a few driver changes for the Sunday night card and most notably, the main event of the evening.
Trial #2 winner Bet On Brett was programmed with driver Louis-Philippe Roy, who is also listed to drive on Sunday at both Hippodrome 3R and Georgian Downs. Bet On Brett's driver will now be former Canadian dash-winning leader Brad Forward, who hasn't driven since December 2016. Forward teamed with Bet On Brett's trainer Rene Allard to win the 2014 Gold Cup & Saucer with Bigtown Hero.
The other notable driver change comes with post eight starter Lincolnjames. Previously slated to have the services of Anthony MacDonald, the driver is now Kenny Arsenault. MacDonald has a prior commitment to drive in Pennsylvania Sire Stakes action at Pocono.
