SUMMERSIDE – It was déjà vu for driver David Dowling at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway on Sunday afternoon as he captured the top pace of the day, and won five races for a second straight week.
Dowling used rail control with Mando Fun to carve out all the fractions in the $2,200 featured pace through fractions of 28.1, 58.1 and 1:27.3. The mile was closed out in 29.1 for a 1:56.4 time. Mando Fun prevailed over KD Overdrive (driven by Corey MacPherson) and the third-place Goliath Reigns (Dale Spence).
Mando Fun is co-owned and trained by Paul Biggar of Tyne Valley along with co-owner Donald Callbeck of Kensington.
Dowling also visited the winner’s circle with Heart And Guts for owner Shirlene O’Brien of Burton after a 1:58.3 mile, and Windemereimalright for trainer Earl Watts of North Wiltshire in a time of 2:00. Dowling’s other wins came with Young Man Matt in 1:57.3 for Terry Gallant of Summerside, and Cal Hanover for trainer Watts in 2:02.4.
Heart And Soul captured the back-up class for a $1,900 purse as Walter Cheverie engineered the winning trip in 1:57.3 for owner Riley Farms Ltd. of Summerside. The race featured a dead heat for second place as Salmonier Storm (Ambyr Campbell) and Pictonian Storm (Ken Murphy) hit the wire together.
