The mare has tackled the deep waters of the Open Mares level all summer and is installed as 7-2 third morning line choice on Thursday. Her main rivals include Promise Me Later (To be driven by David Dowling) from post 2, a daughter of Articulator fresh off a win in 1:55.1 in her latest, and from post 5 is morning line favourite Windemere Saddy (Corey MacPherson), coming off a third-place finish in the Birthplace Of Confederation Open Mares Final for conditioner Saul Lanigan.<br \/>\nThe Post Time Picks side with Woodmere Kennedie.<br \/>\n\u201cWoodmere Kennedie has missed the ticket in four straight starts but up against some big-time competition. The good news is she gets the rail, and the price will be friendly so there could be a minor upset brewing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The $16,000 Graduate Series Gold Final will go as race 4 with three mares answering the call. Former Atlantic champion Tobins Brownie (Adam Merner) gets the rail at 3-1 odds with Rosetown Mary (Corey MacPherson) looming as the 5-2 favourite from post 2 while Galway Girl (Marc Campbell) has post 3.<\/p>\n<p>The $6,000 Graduate Series Grassroots Consolation is carded as race 7 with Saulsbrook Annie (Dowling) off the rail for trainer Michael Dowling, along with Allaboutthebett (Brady Sweet) from post 6 for trainer Jeff Holmes and NoFool Tobago (Paul Langille) leaving from post 5 for trainer Garth Cole.<\/p>\n<p>The diagonally gaited performers are in the spotlight in race 11, with the Island Oceans Trot Challenge presented by Burkie By The Bay Stable for a purse of $6,500. The dash will see another showdown between post 1 entry Fight Song (Jason Hughes) for trainer Ashley Gamester, as well as post 4 starter Buckhead Ridge (Marc Campbell) from the Landon Campbell barn in a deep field.<\/p>\n<p>The undercard includes the Workers Compensation Board of PEI Pace in race 5 for $3,350 in an overnight event.<\/p>\n<p>For complete coverage, live video, and programs, go to Redshores.ca.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Nicholas Oakes For Red Shores CHARLOTTETOWN, PE \u2013\u00a0The stage is set for championship night as the P.E.I.
