Bent Attorney Looks to Make it Two in a Row on Fort Erie Turf

FORT ERIE, August 13...Centennial Farms Bent Attorney will be looking for her second straight win on the Fort Erie grass when she meets five rivals in Sunday’s $125,000 Rainbow Connection Stakes.

The five-year-old daughter of Crown Attorney is coming off a solid effort in the Ernie Samuel Memorial back on July 12, a race she won by a length. She covered the five furlongs on the turf in 57 2/5 over a course that was listed as good. She will likely get the same footing on Sunday and will be travelling the same distance.

“I think things will go pretty much the same way Sunday as they did last time,” said trainer Don MacRae. “There should be speed to run at. She was able to stalk the leaders and it looks like she’ll be able to stalk again.”

Tyler Pizzaro will have the mount in the Rainbow Connection. Pizzaro rode Bent Attorney to a second place finish in the Zadracarta Stakes at Woodbine prior to the Ernie Samuel.

The Rainbow Connection will be the 6th race on the 8 race program which gets underway at 1:45pm.
