Atlantic Sires Stakes Colts Heading to Inverness

September 2, 2016 

Heart and Soul will attempt to maintain his lead in point standings when the Atlantic Sires Stakes three-year-old pacing colts meet at Inverness Raceway on Sunday afternoon. 

Two ‘A’ divisions of the pacing colts will each go for almost $10,000 in purse money and a lone ‘B’ division will go for $2500.  

Heart and Soul leads the group of pacing colts and geldings with 20 points, followed by a group of four colts all tied in second place with 16 points. 

This will be the fifth and final Atlantic Sires Stakes meeting of the sophomore colts prior to the season-ending Atlantic Breeders Crown Championships.  The top eight point earners in each division gain entry into the championship events slated for Red Shores Charlottetown Driving Park on Thanksgiving Weekend. 

First race post time on Sunday at Inverness Raceway is 1:30 pm.
