The final Island stake of 2021 will go postward on Saturday (Oct. 30) at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The capital oval has 14 dashes on tap starting at 12:30 p.m. including four divisions of the Maritime Breeders Stake for three-year-old pacers in the final stakes event to be held on P.E.I. in 2021.
The first $17,300 Home Hardware Maritime Breeders division lines up in Race 5 for sophomore pacing fillies as Mystifying is the top choice with rail control for trainer-driver Darryl MacLean.
The second filly split goes behind the starting gate in Race 9 with Emmy Lou Hayes selected on top after a 1:57.2 romp her last start for the combination of driver Jason Hughes and trainer Stephen Quinn.
Race 7 has a five-horse field of three-year-old pacing colts in a $17,100 Home Hardware Maritime Breeders division. Rotten Ronnie will be the one to beat from Post 5 for driver Redmond Doucet and trainer Lennan MacIsaac.
The final Maritime Breeders division is the most anticipated match-up with Bettim Again (Paul Langille) off the rail from the George Rennison barn after his MacKenzie stake victory last week. Woodmere Stealdeal (Marc Campbell) had to settle for second that day and will be saddled with Post 5 on Saturday.
In the Post Time Picks, Peter MacPhee likes the odds of Woodmere Stealdeal overcoming his outside post position.
“Woodmere Stealdeal has had another awesome year and has seven wins and earned over $69,000 in prize money. He also loves to race at this track and with Marc at the controls we think they land on the line first.”
