Driver Yannick Gingras floated Atlanta towards the front past the quarter and held control the remainder of the mile to take the $220,000 Charlie Hill Memorial in a track-record mile of 1:51.4.
Stablemate Mission Accepted cleared command from Plunge Blue Chip rounding the first turn and approaching a :27.1 first quarter. Atlanta slowly advanced towards the lead and cleared command past the stands first time. Guardian Angel As—parked from the start—gradually progressed towards the pacesetter through a :56 half and towards three-quarters in 1:24, only reaching Atlanta's wheel before stalling. Atlanta spun into the stretch maintaining command while Plunge Blue Chip shot through the open stretch to finish a neck shy of victory. Mission Accepted settled for third while Guardian Angel As finished fourth.
"Honestly I was kind of measuring a little bit late," Gingras said after the race. "Ake [Svanstedt and Plunge Blue Chip] was coming kind of fast. [Atlanta]'s a way better mare following horses but the way the race was going tonight I went to the front. Ronnie called me after [the Maple Leaf Trot] last Saturday and said he wanted to race her here, trying to find a couple of starts before the [International Trot] and this was the perfect place. The track was good and she put on a good performance."
Winning her seventh race from 11 starts this season and her 19th from 35 overall, Atlanta has amassed $1,799,089 in earnings. The four-year-old Chapter Seven mare is trained by Ron Burke for owners Crawford Farms Racing, Brad Grant and Howard Taylor. She paid $5.80 to win.
