Summit City Swan has drawn post six in the six-filly lineup. Ronnie Wrenn Jr. has been called on to drive her as she seeks her 11th win in 22 starts for 2019. Her fastest win time this season was taken at Harrah’s Hoosier Park in 1:55.0 but she has trotted in 1:54.1 this season also.
Trained by Byron Hooley, Summit City Swan will see her biggest opponent from post one from the Julie Miller barn. French Café, who has three wins in eight starts this season and a mark of 1:52.3, she comes into the race off a fourth-place finish in the Kentucky Sires Stakes Final at The Red Mile where she trotted in 1:51.4. She will once again be driven by Andy Miller.
The Buckette is slated as race 13 on the 20-race card featuring the Jugette. Estimated post time for the Buckette is 2:51 p.m.
