SUMMERSIDE, P.E.I. — A perfect two-hole ride sealed the way to victory for Noundidnt Blue Chip in the feature event and capped off a six-win performance by his driver Sunday afternoon at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.
Warren Grove resident David Dowling was the star of the program, winning six races on the 10-dash card. In the $2,800 featured pace, Adkins Hanover (driven By Ambyr Campbell) went to the front and controlled the race with splits of 29.2, 1:00.4 and 1:29.3 while fending off a first-over advance from Woodmere Ideal Art (Norris Rogers).
Dowling sat pretty in the two-hole with Noudidnt Blue Chip for the duration of the race, until he powered up for a neck decision in 1:58.3. Adkins Hanover was at the wire for second while third went to Pictonian Storm (Myles Heffernan Sr.).
Noudidnt Blue Chip is owned and trained by Neal Moase of Warren Grove.

That feature win was one of six visits to the winner’s circle for Dowling. He started off the day capturing the first five dashes until his feature win in Race 9. The action started as he steered The Devils Cut to a 2:02 victory for Chris MacKay of French River the won with Bugtown Superstar in 2:02.2 for Brian Walsh of Albany.
