Say Something doubles up in Prospect Series

Muscle Mass harness racing filly Say Something scored her second straight Prospect Series victory on Saturday (Jun. 11) at a rain-soaked Kawartha Downs.

The Desiree Jones trainee initially protected position from post one and made it to the quarter as the leader in :30.3. Royaltys Dream (Doug Brown) took control nearing the half in :59.2 and was unhurried nearing three-quarters in 1:30.2.

Ryan Guy held Say Something on the leader’s helmet until they entered the stretch, and the filly brushed by Royaltys Dream once in open racetrack to win by two-and-three-quarter lengths in 2:00.2.

Royaltys Dream was second-best. Molise (Nick Boyd) passed two rivals in the final quarter for show. The win price was $3.40.

SAY SOMETHING REPLAY

Say Something has won twice in 20 career starts and has earned $56,456. She moved to the Jones Barn at the start of the season after going winless in 15 starts as a two-year-old. Gino Toscani of Mount Hope owns the filly.

That Prospect Series contest was leg 2A for the three-year-old trotting fillies. The next event will be leg 2B at Grand River Raceway on Wednesday, Jun. 29.

Brown one-upped his opening night triple with a grand slam on the card. The Hall-of-Fame driver won with Something Royal (1:58.2), Imacutelilmonkey (2:01.1), Sir A (1:57), and Salty Robyn N (1:56.3). Reg Gassien, with whom he is currently battling for the drivers’ standings lead, made three trips to the winner’s circle. The reinsmen are now tied with eight tallies each after three race dates.

Kawartha Downs will be in action next on Saturday, Jun. 18.
