Cruisinart Triples At Northside

Published: June 18, 2011 05:27 pm EDT

Cruisinart wired the field of top pacers at Northside Downs for the third consecutive week on Saturday afternoon in North Sydney, N.S.

Cruisinart and trainer-driver Myles Heffernan left from the inside post position and raced past panels of :28, :57 and 1:26.4 before coasting home for the 1:57 score in the $1,000 Winners Over Pace. For the second straight week, Game Zac (Alex MacNeil) advanced first up to finish second, three-quarters of a length behind, and Woodmere Westerner (Greg Sparling) finished third, nearly six lengths behind.

Sent postward as the popular choice, Cruisinart paid $3.20 to win. The eight-year-old Real Artist-Yieldtotheprincess gelding, owned by Johnny Heffernan of Reserve Mines, N.S., is now five-for-seven on the year. He sports 27 wins on his lifetime record and earnings totalling $87,906.
