Roll Em Gives Campbell Old Home Week Win 26

By Nicholas Oakes For Red Shores

CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – With a three-wide power move up the backstretch, Roll Em left his foes in the rearview mirror in the $15,000 P.E.I. Harness Racing Industry Association Invitational Saturday afternoon at Red Shores Racetrack and Casino at the Charlottetown Driving Park as the first part of a Gold Cup and Saucer Doubleheader.

Roll Em scored a five-length victory in 1:51.4 for co-owner and trainer Brent Campbell and co-owners Brady Doyle, Savage Stable and Ryan MacLeod. Pacesetter Fern Hill General (Driven by Brodie MacPhee) was second ahead of Ilikemebettor A (Mike McGuigan).

Roll Em’s victory was number 26 of Old Home Week 2024 for driver Marc Campbell as the Orwell horseman has clinched the Francis McIsaac Memorial Award and closes in on his own all-time record for wins in a single Old Home Week. Campbell set the record of 31 victories during Old Home Week 2013, which had six extra programs on the schedule that year with doubleheaders nearly every day.

Campbell will try his luck at five extra victories during the evening program at Red Shores Charlottetown starting at 6 P.M. featuring the $100,000 Gold Cup and Saucer, presented by Atlantic Lottery, in the race 14 finale.

The afternoon card also had Grassroots divisions of the Joe O’Brien Memorial Stake carrying purses of $10,650.

Allaboutthecash (Gilles Barrieau) won his division in 1:55.1 from the Jeff Holmes barn as well as the Ashley Gamester trained Ididitmyshui (Jason Hughes) in 1:57 and Heres To Art (Ken Murphy) in 1:55.4 for trainer Clifford Murphy.
