Canada’s fastest freshman filly scores again

Pass Line (All Bets Off), Canada’s fastest two-year-old harness racing filly so far, won her second straight start to begin her career and shaved a fifth off her debut time on Thursday (Jun. 29) at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

Louis-Philippe Roy slipped her into third in a :28.2 first panel and sent her forward nearing three-eighths and took over before completing the half in :58.1.

Pass Line rolled to three-quarters in 1:27.1 unopposed and left Raffle Winner (Sylvain Filion) and Tribal Dancer (Trevor Henry) treading water as she powered to victory in 1:54.

Raffle Winner leapfrogged Tribal Dancer late for second.

PASS LINE REPLAY

Dave Menary trains Pass Line, who has paced Canada’s fastest mile for a two-year-old in a parimutuel race this season (Clever Cody was faster in a qualifier). Burke Racing Stable and Weaver Bruscemi co-own the filly, who has now earned $16,000. She is perfect in two career starts.

There were three more two-year-old races on the night:

Top Mast (Walner) came home in :26.3 and passed a breaking leader to remain perfect through two starts with a mile time of 1:59.3. The Desiree Jones-trained colt is owned by Gino Toscani, who bought him from the Lexington Select sale for $25,000. Muscle Detector (Doug McNair) finished second. Mrstery Deal (Filion) broke from the lead coming down the stretch but finished third.

TOP MAST REPLAY

Cold Snaps (Six Pack) won by an identical margin in 1:56.4. She’s now Canada’s fastest two-year-old trotter of the season. She finished fourth in her debut. Blake Macintosh trains the filly and co-owns her with Tim Klemencic. They combined to take the filly from the Lexington Select sale for $34,000. Queen Cabal (Filion) finished second above Gaming Queen (MacDonald).

COLD SNAPS REPLAY

Pass And Stow (Betting Line) began her career perfectly with a 1:55.4 victory by a half-length. She was a $28,000 Harrisburg purchase for West Wins Stable and Mark Dumain. Tiny Beaton conditions the filly. Century Kalimba (Travis Cullen) was second, and Sporty Liz (Tyler Jones) finished third.
