Ramblinglily equals track record at Summerside

Motorino, with Terry Gallant in the bike, captured the afternoon top class in 1:57.1. The pacing black gelding turned back Bazzillion (Brian MacPhee) and Smiley Bayama (Ron Gass).

Marc Campbell had a driving triple.

Wade Sorrie and Gallant posted driving doubles on the 14 dash program.
