The daughter of Fit For Life-Hickory Moxie notched her third win in a row and sixth of the season in 11 outings.

She has banked $10,566 for owner Kenneth MacDonald of Montague, P.E.I.
With Walter Cheverie in the bike for the first time, Askbeforeyousign ($2.70) set her sights on the front and kicked away from the field by six and three-quarter lengths to win in 2:02.2. A Teddy A Shine (Brodie MacPhee) followed for second and longshot Dustylane Koko (Corey MacPherson) rallied from the backfield to show.
