Lady All Star keeps ball rolling with Autumn Series romp

Lady All Star (My Mvp) rocked her harness racing opposition in the first leg of the Ontario-sired Autum Series Event A at Flamboro Downs on Saturday (Oct. 7) to go three-for-three on the season.

Brett MacDonald summoned speed from the filly to reach the lead from post six. Lady All Star had it her way through panels of :29, 1:00, and 1:30.1, and no challenge ever materialized. She added to her advantage turning for home and rolled home to complete her five-length victory in 2:00. Northern Classic (Anthony Haughan) was first-up from the third turn and persisted for second. Allstar Goldi (Scott Coulter) finished third.
