CHARLOTTETOWN, PE \u2013 Gold Cup and Saucer runner-up Twin B Tuffenuff is back in action on red soil for the Saturday evening top event at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park.<\/p>\n
The capital oval has a 14-dash presentation starting at 6 P.M., with Twin B Tuffenuff headlining the card in race 13 for a $4,300 purse.<\/p>\n
The 10-year-old Rock N Roll Heaven stallion was racing the end of last season at Saratoga Raceway in New York on the tail end of a season where he scored 10 wins and earned $103,000 in purses, primarily in Atlantic Canada. Ron Matheson trains for owner Pat Morris, with Gilles Barrieau back in the bike from post 5 in Saturday\u2019s contest.<\/p>\n
Jewels Dragon (To be driven by Marc Campbell) has rail control from the Landon Campbell barn fresh off a third-place finish in last week\u2019s top class to One Eight Hundred and Blood Money, who are absent from competition this Saturday.<\/p>\n
Post 2 in Saturday’s top class has Shadows Terror with Red Shores Charlottetown leading driver Adam Merner in the seat while the horse is riding a three-race win streak. Laughagain Hanover (Jason Hughes) has post 3 while Tradition (Corey MacPherson) holds down post 4.<\/p>\n
The Post Time Picks take Twin B Tuffenuff to deliver as the morning line favourite.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt’s great to see the 2024 Governor\u2019s Plate winner, Twin B Tuffenuff, back in action under the Red Shores lights. He looked fantastic during morning workouts over the past few weeks and closed strong to finish second in his qualifier so I expect him to dominate this group tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Ise Pick 5 with the $2000 Guaranteed pool and low 15% take out kicks off the program in race 1 as Brookdale Ollie (Marc Campbell) is the top choice in the $2,800 event from post 6 for trainer Vaughan Doyle and owners Melinda Stead and Gary Ford.<\/p>\n
The Super Hi5 launches in race 5. Howmac Exclusive (MacPherson) took a new lifetime best of 1:54.3 last week in this $3,700 class and is favoured again in race 5 from post 6 for trainer Les Waite, who co-owns with Leith Waite and Jim Gorman.<\/p>\n
The new late Pick 4 with the $1000 Guaranteed pool is featured in races 11 to 14 while the finale also has the second Super Hi 5 of the night.<\/p>\n
