Roll Em Romps In Canada Day Feature; Little Leroy Fires To Third Straight

By Nicholas Oakes For Red Shores

SUMMERSIDE, PE – The $4,300 featured pace on Canada Day Tuesday was all about Roll Em at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.

The 15-dash Canada Day program went under a short delay after race 4 due to a power outage in the area but the beat then went on as Roll Em ($2.50) captured race 14 in 1:53.1.

The Landon Campbell trainee went right to the front and controlled every step of the featured pace for driver Marc Campbell winning by two lengths in 1:53.1 off of splits in 27.1, 56.2 and 1:25.2. It was the fastest mile of the day and the first win of the season for the Time To Roll seven-year-old, who is co-owned by the Savage Stable, Brent Campbell and Ryan MacLeod.

Brookdale Johnny (Paul Langille) was second in a sharp effort, while Rollwithhottytoddy (Myles Heffernan Sr.) held third.

Little Leroy ($2.10) strolled to his third straight win in his $3,650 event with Ken Murphy at the controls for trainer Joe Baxter who co-owns with Marion Stewart, Brian Ramsay and BMD Memorial Stable. The four-year-old son of Source Of Pride fronted the field through splits of 27.2, 57, 1:25.4 and 1:54.2. Jack Boswall (Marc Campbell) was second with Sharky (Corey MacPherson) third.

Marc Campbell had three wins on the program as a driver including a 1:57.3 win by Tobins Future ($3.50) for trainer Jason Biggar and a win in the Canada Day Pace in race 3 aboard Rollwithitdarling ($3.40) from the Devon Wallace Stable with a 1:56.3 clocking.

MacPherson was a three-time winner on the afternoon winning with Jackie Pang ($4.10) from his own stable in 1:57.4, One Rock ($3.10) for trainer Luke Burke in 1:56.2 and Hunger Pangs ($2.90) in race 12 in 1:55.4 from the Blaine McKenna barn.
