New Track Record for Three-Year-Old Pacing Fillies at Inverness Raceway
A new track record for three-year-old fillies was set on Sunday afternoon at Inverness Raceway with Elm Grove Inarush clocking the impressive 1:55.3 mile. The three-year-old pacing filly was under the command of driver Mark Bradley in the first of two Atlantic Sires Stakes ‘A’ division events. The ownership papers on the filly are held by Blaine Thibeau, Eddy Doucette, Gordon MacLeod and Grant Mann of Kensington, PE.
Saulsbrook Alana and driver Marc Campbell captured the second ‘A’ division event in 1:56.4 for owner Reg MacPherson of Stratford, PE.
Two ‘B’ division events were further highlights on the afternoon race card with the first dash going to Rhondas Example and driver Mike Stevenson. Meanwhile Happy To Scoot took first place honours in her division with Wade Sorrie in the bike.

The Atlantic Sires Stakes-Meridian Farms two and three-year-old trotting events will be featured during the evening card of racing. Joining the trotters at the Inverness oval will be the Atlantic Sires Stakes two-year-old pacing fillies.
