CLINTON, ON — Only one of the winners from the three-year-old pacing filly Grassroots opener will make her way to Clinton Raceway on Sunday, June 30, leaving the door wide open for newcomers like local entry Zip Car.
When the fillies kicked off their Grassroots season at Mohawk Racetrack in early June, Zip Car had just finished competing in the City of London Pacing Series, where she won her May 21 leg and finished second in the May 31 final. Since then the filly has added another second-place result to her sophomore resume, for a total of one win and three seconds in four starts.
Trainer Heather Toll and Mark Beaven of Dungannon share ownership of Zip Car and Cambridge resident Robert Shepherd will steer her from Post 8 in the ninth race on Sunday.
Mattys Big Day is the only June 3 winner who will compete at Clinton Raceway, battling from Post 3 in the eighth race. The Sam Sergi trainee boasts a record of three wins and one second in five starts this season.
Ontario’s talented three-year-old pacing fillies will open the Sunday, June 30 program at 1:30 pm and will also battle over the Clinton Raceway oval in Races 2, 3, 8, 9, 10, and 11.
