Perfection on the line

Arc Light looks to stay unbeaten this season tonight in CDP feature

“(Dreamfair Zenfire) moves a couple of spots to her left for this one and is reunited with Marc, who’s red hot so we’ll treat her as the one to beat.”

The best mares racing on the Eastern Seaboard will hook up tonight in the featured race at Red Shores at the Charlottetown Driving Park.

The $2,900 fillies and mares open pace headlines the 10dash card that has a first race post time of 6 p.m.

The Marc Campbell stable has won this class the first two weeks of the season and Arc Light will put her short undefeated streak to the test from Post 6.

Adam Merner will pick up the catch-drive assignment behind Arc Light for owner Grayland Farm of Gulf Shore, N.S.

The four-year-old daughter of Camystic has found the winner’s circle both weeks of the new season.

Campbell will elect to drive stablemate Dreamfair Zenfire from Post 2 after beating this class with the newcomer on June 4.

Berazzled has been knocking on the door with a pair of runner-up finishes since coming east and will again have Mike McGuigan at the lines from Post 5 for trainer Jonah Moase.

Race analyst Les MacIsaac sides with the preferable post position of Dreamfair Zenfire as he places her on top of his ticket.

“Dreamfair Zenfire’s modest winning streak was halted last week, but she still turned in a solid effort,” MacIsaac said.

“(She) moves a couple of spots to her left for this one and is reunited with Marc, who’s red hot so we'll treat her as the one to beat.”

Also in the class are Miss Kabana (Vincent Poulton), Much Adoo (Brodie MacPhee), Woodmere Chella (David Dowling) and Southwind Ion (Jason Hughes).

The evening back-up class lines up in the finale for a $2,300 purse. The eighthorse field appears to be a wide-open affair with Killean Finale picked as the morningline choice from Post 6 for driver Ken Murphy, trainer Clifford Murphy and owners Dr. Mary McNiven and Pacemaker Stable of Nine Mile Creek.

Falls Creek makes her East Coast debut from Post 5 with Campbell in the bike for new trainer Bo Ford. The Badlands Hanover mare won her last outing in the $7,000 claiming class in February at Rideau Carleton Raceway outside Ottawa.
