Remarkable Image cornes from behind to win major stake race The Canadien Champion, Tuesday, October 14,1997-23 A quick move from tiftb ta firat in the aecond quarter and Remarkable Image was wel on ber way ta victory in the $69,250 Robert Stewart Stakes for two- year-old fil ly trotters on October 4. Driven by tramner, breeder and co-owner Karen Fekete of Rockwood, Remarkable Image set- tled away off the early pace before jettinig ta the Iead after the quarter in :28.3. Sbe graduall[y widened ber margin through the remainder of the mile, then eased ta tbe wire a four-and-one-quarter lengtb winner in 1:59.4. Warrawee Kes came on ta nip Armbro Roseanne for sec- ond place. "She's been an incredible filly for us," said Fekete of the Balanced Image-Armbro Mckeown filly, which won the faatest (2:00.3) of the two eliminationa last week. "(Co-owner and breeder) Brian Peifer and I are sa fortunate ta bave raised one like this. She's always HoofReéat been a natural but you neyer know when they're training down if they're going ta be good enough." While Fekete had become accus- tomed ta rallying Remarkable Image from behind in each of her previaus wins, she altered ber strat- egy slighting this time. "I just wanted ta take my time getting away and tben once they settled in single file I decided ta move ta the front," Fekete explained. "She bad neyer been on the front early in a race so it was a new experience for ber, but she responded weIl. She's just been great for us and hopefully sbe can stay healthy." The win was the fifth in seven starts for Remarkable Image and upped ber season bankroll ta $171,832. She will get some time off now before returning in November for tbe Canadian Breeders Championship at Mohawk and tbe final 1997 Ontario Sires Stakes Gold event in London. The $89,650 Robert Stewart Two-Year-Old FiIly Pace proved ta be a thriller as three of last week's elimination winners, Arrobro Rosebud, Stonebridge First and Duncans Artaplace, dueled through the stretch. At the end it was Stonebridge First and driver Steve Condren pre- vailing by a neck in 1:56.2 with Armbro Rosebud winning the photo for second aver Duncans Artsplace. - - - - s- a mm... on deuning products alêne!
