Jimmy Freight Repeats In Preferred Pace

Double duty is clearly sitting well with Jimmy Freight, who captured his second consecutive Preferred Pace on Saturday evening at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

With breeding service in full swing for the season, Jimmy Freight is being collected for mares that come a courting and then still finding time to butt heads with some of the nation’s top older pacers.

Jimmy Freight was treated to a two-hole ride this evening behind Uhtred, who carved out panels of :28.3, :57.2 and 1:25.3 in the $36,000 affair. Louis-Philippe Roy angled the Richard Moreau trainee out of the pocket at the head of the lane and Jimmy Freight then summoned up :27.3 speed on the end of the mile to win by a length over Uhtred in 1:53.2. Race favourite Wheels On Fire rallied to grab third prize in the six-horse affair.

Adriano Sorella owns the seven-year-old son of Sportswriter-Allamerican Summer who is included in the stallion roster offered at Canada’s division of Winbak Farm. The victory improves his 2022 box score to 4-0-2 from nine attempts. The 25-time winner has banked over $1.5 million to date.
