Nogreatmischief charges to feature win in Summerside

SUMMERSIDE, P.E.I. — Nogreatmischief was not content to sit last in a very compact featured field and made his first-over attack a winning one on a special Monday afternoon harness racing program at Red Shores at the Summerside Raceway.
Walter Cheverie got away last in a scratched-down field of four in the $2,500 featured pace and watched as Mantario (driven by Norris Rogers) tripped the first fraction in 29.2, before releasing Mando Fun (Gilles Barrieau) to the lead.
The next two splits were in 59 and 1:28.1 while Nogreatmischief made his way first-over and took control for the final quarter to romp by six lengths in 1:57. Mantario was second while Mando Fun finished third. Cheverie co-owns and trains the eight-year-old son of Bettors Delight for co-owner Brian Thompson of Charlottetown.
Barrieau scored a quadruple on the holiday card, winning with Souverain in 1:58.1 for Phil Sizer of Kensington, Best To Hurst in 1:58.2 for Earl Watts of Hampshire, Zingers Laugh in 1:59.2 for trainer Neil Bambrick of Charlottetown and with Dilans Mustang in 2:01.4 from the Robert Phillips Stable of Summerside.
