In the 2nd race at Hastings Racecourse on September 29, a 6 1/2 furlong Allowance test for 3-year-old fillies which are non-winners of three or running for the optional claiming price of $25,000 under showery skies and on a fast track, Under Par went wire to wire, getting home 1 1/2 lengths clear of her nearest rival, in 1:17.84 while being guided to victory by jockey Aaron Gryder. The consistent BC-bred filly, running for the $25,000 claiming tag, won her 4th race of the year and has never been out of the money in her eight lifetime starts. She is owned by Canmor Farms and Maureen Goss, and trained by Mark Cloutier, whose win percentage is approaching 30 %. BC bred Under Par, sired by Stephanotis out of the German bred mare, Big Bertha, was bred in BC by Glen Todd. Loire Miller sold a yearling filly by Texas Wildcatter out of Big Bertha to Marion Ryan for the bargain price of $10,500, at the 2018 CTHS Yearling and Mixed Sale held on September 11th at Thunderbird Show Park in Langley, BC.
