Pownal Bay Bobbi impressed in Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots
Pownal Bay Bobbi impressed in Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots action at Georgina Downs on the card with a 1:52.3 victory in the first $25,000 third-leg division for two-year-old pacing fillies. She left quickest in the eight-horse field to take the lead and was in control throughout, pacing :28, :56.4, and 1:23.4 panels. P N G Shadow (Roy) rallied off the pylons from third on the final turn and made a strong bid down the stretch, but Pownal Bay Bobbi held on by a half-length. Horse With A Plan (Travis Cullen) was third.
Pownal Bay Bobbi broke her maiden in her fifth attempt for trainer Kyle Fellows. The daughter of Century Farroh-Bettorthanbobbi was a $17,000 London Classic Yearling Sale buy for Yolanda Fellows of Rockwood, Ont. and Blair Corbeil of Leduc, Alta. She returned $20.60 to her backers.
