SUMMERSIDE, PE – First Glance powered to the lead and never looked back in the Tuesday evening featured event at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.
The roan son of Thinking Out Loud cleared to the lead past the 28 second opening quarter and led through splits of 56.4 and 1:25.3 to close out the mile in 1:53.4 for driver Jason Hughes, trainer Jennifer Doyle and owner Danny Birt of Earnscliffe. Brookdale Johnny (Driven by Paul Langille) came first-over to finish three-quarters-of-a-length back in second while race favourite Howmac Charmer (Corey MacPherson) was third.
Hughes had the hot hands on the evening with a driving triple completed aboard Love That Miramont (1:59.4) in race 3 for trainer Ashley MacDonald and Silver Spirit (1:57.2) for trainer Devon Wallace in the race 11 finale.
Get Home Terry provided the upset of the evening in race 6 as driver Kenny Murphy scooted him up the passing lane to win at 25-1 odds for co-owner and trainer Edgar Stewart and co-owner Tyler MacDonald of Ellerslie.
