A $700 Gold Ingot is up for grabs tonight at Port Pirie, when eight pacers fly the circuit at Phoenix Park in Port Pirie over the mile.
If the winner can beat the time of 1.57.5 set by Royal Knockout, who won the heat of The Goodtime Lodge Allamerician Ingot Series at Shepparton last Friday night, the gold Ingot from the Perth Mint is theirs.
Three-year-old filly,Promise AtDawn, has drawn the pole.At her first run in the state,afteran unplaced run in theVicbred Home Grown Series heatwhen she broke in the score up but still finished fourth, was good enough to suggest she will be the one to beat
Dangers might beComicoprera, now in the stables of Faye Worrell at Port Augusta, or Modern Artgelding, Artmania, who was the winner of this event in August.
The winner of the heat will receive a free service to Allamerican Ingot.
A $285,000 yearling, Allamerican Ingot was one of the leading lights on the Grand Circuit earning $1,238,935 as a two and three-year-old. From only seven starts as a two-year-old he won four with three places and set a new race record winning the time- honored $700,000 Woodrow Wilson whilst equaling the track record.
At 3 he won a further five races highlighted by the Messenger Stake. He also captured a heat of the Little Brown Jug and finished a close third from a wide gate to Art Major and McArdle in the world famous Meadowlands Pace
Allamerican Ingot has achieved success as a sire in the manner expected of a horse of his impeccable bloodlines.
By the great Western Hanover, Allamerican Ingot is out of the Abercrombie “Hall of Fame” mare,Incredible Margie. She is the dam of 7 winners in 1:55 or better.His full sister is the dam of the current top USA 3 y o filly,Pure Country, who has won over $1.5 million to date.
At stud in North America, Allamerican Ingot has left the winners of more than$US22 million including,Blueridge Western ($1.6m)
In Western Australia, from relatively small crops, he has already sired 43 individual winners including Lady Willoughby ($162,000),All Aussie Boy ($115,000),Where Dreams Grow ($101,250), and the winner of the $100,000 WA Diamond Classic, Highest Royalty.
