(Fort
Washington, MD) - A field of five racing under saddle trotters descend upon
Rosecroft Sunday evening, November 4, 2018, in the third and final leg of the
RUS MidAtlantic Trotting Series. The
non-wagering race has an anticipated post time of 7:30pm, to be contested
between the third and fourth races on the wagering program.
All-time
favorite Hyway Marcus (Sasha Moczulski, pp 4) returns looking to repeat his victory
in last year’s event. Finishing second in
his last start to No Recess who is bypassing this race, Hyway Marcus is coming into
the race with a rare two race losing streak.
Atout De Fontaine (pp 1) appears to be the main challenger, having
finished third in his first North American start and picks up rider Maria Buchanan
for trainer Sofia Zingale who will be riding his stablemate Egosnattitudes (pp
3) who will be making his first start. Other starters in the race will be Puddin N
Pie (Stephanie Jacobs, pp 2) who finished fifth in his first start and the lone
mare, My True Friend (Hillary Hartnett, pp 5).
There will
be a meet and greet before and after the race.
Race fans will be able to talk to the riders and ask any questions they
may have about racing under saddle. Post
time for the first race is 6:40pm.
