Rosie came in at 1.59.4 , one of only three to break the two minute mark this year on the Ontario Jockey Club circuit. The amazing fact is that George Stephenson of Newcastle bought Rosie when she was a yearling back in 1975 for onl $6O0, later turning her over to his wife and son-in-law. She would probably bring many times that amount after last week's performance if they wanted to sel her. In the above photo loaned by the Port Perry Star, trainer and driver Bruce Cummings, R.
