3yo+ - 1-0-0-0-0

[color=blue]Usain Bolt came 5th in the Jacques Cartier Stakes. At least he’s good to race once a week, generally.

2yos - 4-0-3-0-1 - good babies!

PLACES:
[color=blue]Katanga (Dark Continent) in a NW2.

[color=red]Ring of Sound (Ring of Fire) in a NW2.

[color=red]Sares (Void) in a NW3.

FOURTH:
[color=red]Rainfall (What’s Debatable) in a maiden.

Only one worth a note; [color=blue]Ch. Space Chips 5th/9 in Gr. 1 Wood Memorial. Congratulations Lewis for the win! :wink:

Pretty good day with 5 out and all in the first 3  :slight_smile:

Chuffed to bits with [color=blue]Saint David (2yo Gilded Saint) who won his NW2. His sire was a late bloomer and mum only won a maiden and a low allowance race but was very consistent at placing. Certainly a surprise to see him run so well first time out.

[color=red]Oryx (5yo Highland Bandit) won her OA with [color=red]Raining on Parade (5yo Gimmie A Shot) finishing 2nd.

[color=blue]Bournville (3yo TakeMeToHollywood) was 2nd in his NW1.

[color=red]Seersee (3yo Magic Glory) was third in her NW2.

3 of today’s wins were in G1 Races. We also claimed [color=red]Irish Eye from Final Furlong after she finished 3rd in her Claiming Race. She is out of a mare that we had raced at 2, 3 & 4 and who won 3 races and just over $100k for us.

Wins
[color=blue]Ch. Devil’s Heir, (3yo, Devil His Due) in the G1 Wood Memorial.
[color=blue]Ch. Ancient Magic, (3yo, Magic Glory) in the G1 Carter Handicap.

[color=blue]Ch. Gaudy Night, (4yo, Prince of Wonder) in the G3 Jacques Cartier Stakes. After a very unimpressive start to his racing career (only 2 2nds in his first 13 races), we entered him in a Claimer, which he won and was, happily, unclaimed. He has not been out of the first 4 in his 8 races since that first win, including 4 wins (2 SW) in his last 5 races.
[color=blue]Ch. Crown of Thorns, (4yo, Call To War) in the Ung City and Suburban Handicap.

A so-so day for us. Four out and two hit the board with second-place finishes. Electric Avenue is really starting to bloom as a 3YO, finishing a strong second in a 9.5f dirt allowance for her fourth OTB finish in four starts this year, and firster 2YO Oath also came second in a 5.5f dirt maiden. How long until one of my 2YOs breaks their maiden…
