Royaltys Dream hitting her groove

Three-year-old Royaltys Dream (Royalty For Life) has found her best form in the midst of her sophomore harness racing season – after her Tuesday (Aug. 16) victory in the Prospect Series at Georgian Downs, she has finished no worse than second in her past five starts.

The filly grabbed the lead early in the first division of leg four for three-year-old trotting fillies on Tuesday for Jason Ryan and stayed on top to the finish in a 1:59.2 win. She was a length clear of Sayonara Angel (Daniel Obrian). Self Important (Bruce Richardson) finished third.
