CHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Forwardly placed from the start, Collective Wisdom took the top race Saturday afternoon at Red Shores at the Charlottetown Driving Park as part of a four-win performance by driver Gilles Barrieau.
Collective Wisdom left smartly from Post 4 in the $2,400 featured fillies and mares pace to strike the lead and put down a 29.3 opener over a sloppy track. Arc Light (Marc Campbell) came first over and cleared to the lead at the half of 59.1, leaving Collective Wisdom sitting second.
Arc Light then battled with Dancers Pass (David Dowling) through the three-quarters of 1:30.2 with Collective Wisdom taking the passing lane in the stretch to win in 2:01.4.
Jackie Matheson trains the winning mare for owner Woodmere Farms of Marshfield. Second went to Dancers Pass with Mrs Dragonfire (Jason Hughes) completing the healthy $703.20 triactor ticket.
Barrieau also won with Hp Rubis Joyce in 2:03.1 for Blaine Baglole of Cornwall, Labero in 2:06.4 for trainer Randy Van Meer of Mount Herbert and What A Babe from the Todd Walsh stable of Charlottetown.
Freddie captured the $2,250 open trot in 2:06.2 for trainer-driver Campbell and owner Three Wisemen Stable of Kingston over Star Photo (Hughes) and Suicide Shift (Steven Shepherd).
Trainer Kevin Gilles had a pair of winners from his Charlottetown barn, both with Hughes in the bike, as Rockrols Image won in 2:04.2 and March Magic scored a 2:08.3 victory for owners Kurt Hughes and Peter MacPhee.
Racing continues today at 12:30 p.m.
