London, May 26, 2014 -- The post position draw for this year’s Molson
Pace was conducted earlier today at The Raceway in London, Ontario and it was
defending champion State Treasurer who came away with the coveted rail position
in this Friday night’s $150,000 event.
State Treasurer has been off to a great start this season, winning his
last three in a row, including a 1:48.3 national season’s record in his latest
outing at Mohawk.
Two-time winner Foiled Again drew the outside post seven in the
eight-horse field and will be making his sixth appearance in London’s signature
race.
Dancin Yankee, who set a 1:47.2 world record in his most recent start at
Pocono, drew post five in the star studded field which also includes Bettors
Edge (PP2), Bandolito (PP3), Apprentice Hanover (PP4), PH Super Cam (PP6) and
Captive Audience (PP8).
First post on Friday night is 7:05 p.m. (E.T.). There will be
commemorative Foiled Again post cards given to customers with program purchase
and one lucky fan will have a chance to ride behind Foiled Again in a
double-seated jogger earlier in the night.
The Molson girls will be on hand hosting a Molson ‘Party on the Patio’
with plenty of contests and giveaways throughout the night. There will also be
a pair of grand prize draws for VIP packages to both the Beer and Barbecue Show
and the Pepsi North America Cup.
On the wagering side, the Early Pick-4 will feature a $7,500 guaranteed
pool with a $10,000 guarantee on the Late Pick-4. The Super Hi-5, in race
seven, will also feature a $10,000 guaranteed pool.
