Corey MacPherson’s Rosetown Mary top choice

CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – Rosetown Mary (Pang Shui) will try to deliver from the grandstand side of the harness racing starting gate in the Thursday evening (June 13) Fillies and Mares Preferred Pace at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.

The capital oval has 11-dashes scheduled for a 6 P.M., start including the $3,700 Fillies and Mares Preferred Pace with a cooler presentation from Gaming Security Professionals Of Canada. Corey MacPherson trains and drives the morning line favoured Rosetown Mary from post 7 in the field of as many for owners Taylor MacPherson and Rosetown Stable. The four-year-old has yet to miss the top three so far this season.

Pasta Momma will make her first Island start from post 1 after being scratched from her June 6 start. Marc Campbell drives the winner of 12 races for trainer Landon Campbell.

Tobins Brownie has knocked on the door of this class every week including a trio of victories in May and leaves from post 2 Thursday for trainer-driver David Dowling.

Post 3 has Plain Jane for trainer Landon Campbell with Brady Sweet assigned the catch drive.

Ms Moyse (To be driven by Adam Merner) leaves from post 4 for trainer Melissa Rennie while last week’s Fillies and Mares Preferred winner Share The Moment (Gilles Barrieau) has post 5 from the Bo Ford barn.

Post 6 belongs to Acefortyfour Dome (Mark Bradley) making her first start of the Summer Meet for trainer Ashley Gamester.

The Post Time Picks select Pasta Momma to win off the rail.

“Pasta Momma shows some fast miles at half-mile tracks south of the border last year and that qualifier here in Charlottetown looked pretty impressive. She’ll be tough to beat from the rail.”

Race 5 is the Happy 30th Birthday Dr. Katie McQueen Pace with Galway Girl (Marc Campbell) the top selection from post 7 for trainer Landon Campbell and owners Kent MacDonald, Bernard MacDonald, Jacinta Campbell and Brady Doyle.
