CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Collective Wisdom used first-over tactics to her full advantage to deliver as the heavy favourite in Thursday’s feature at Red Shores at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
Getting away fourth in the $2,300 featured pace, Collective Wisdom was moved first-over by driver Gilles Barrieau while moving to the half-mile marker. The Jackie Matheson-trained pacer then engaged pacesetter Drivingthedragon N (Jason Hughes) and powered by in the final panel to win in 1:57.3.
Miss Sangria (Corey MacPherson) took second-over cover to finish second while Dancers Pass (David Dowling) closed out in third place.
Woodmere Farms of Marshfield own Collective Wisdom.
Trainer Joe MacDonald had his stable firing on all cylinders Thursday with two winners from his Cornwall stable both with MacPherson in the bike. Dreas Good Powow was a winner in 1:57.3 in the finale while Hurricane Hill won earlier on the card in 1:57.4.
The Kenny Arsenault stable also had two winners with Akrotiri making a maiden-breaking score in 2:03.1 and Back In The Game won in 2:00.1, both with Arsenault above the wheels.
