CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – There is no question Burn Out Hanover (Well Said – Burning Point) loves the front end and he will try to turn his forward stepping strategy into a third straight harness racing victory in the Saturday evening (Jun. 23) top class at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
The capital oval has 12-dashes listed for a 6:30 P.M. opening post time with the Preferred 2 pace lining up in race 11.
Burn Out Hanover has been the boss his last two starts controlling every step of the mile and gets post 3 to work from this week for driver Brady Sweet, trainer Jeff Holmes and owner Orwell Bay Stable of Orwell. The front stepping Burn Out Hanover boasts 32 victories in his career and just scored one of his best ever two starts back in 1:53.4.
Mc Pat (Delmarvelous) leaves from post 4 as the morning line favourite in the $3,300 dash for trainer-driver Gilles Barrieau with a perfect record of top-three finishes this season.
The hottest horse in Prince County racing in 2022, Soccer Hanover (Dragon Again), gets the outside post 6 for driver Ken Murphy from the Leith Waite barn after winning six races so far this season. Rail control goes to Doc Darryl (Sunshine Beach) who makes his summer debut for driver Colin Sheppard for the first career training start of Morgan Sheppard’s career.
David Dowling gets the catch driving call aboard Mantario (Sportswriter) while Brodie MacPhee steers Blue Monk from post 5.
Peter MacPhee puts Burn Out Hanover on top of the Post Time Picks
“Burn Out Hanover has been great all season long and just went coast to coast in both Charlottetown and Summerside. There’s little doubt Brady will be sending early so they could score a natural hat trick.”
