A pair of $11,000 co-featured Preferreds topped the Tuesday (Jan. 16) evening card at The Raceway at the Western Fair District with So Frisky winning the split for the pacing mares and Delgado taking the other split for trotters.
Delgado delivered a dominant performance to score in the $9,000 featured conditioned trot which highlighted the 11-race card at Flamboro Downs on Sunday, January 7.
Two-year-old trotting fillies clashed in a set of $20,000 divisions in Thursday’s opening round of the Pure Ivory Trotting Series at Woodbine Mohawk Park, and as often is the case with young trotters – the favourites faltered.
Dabra Day posted a 17-1 upset thanks to her 1:57.1 triumph in the opening split for driver Louis-Philippe Roy and trainer Meg Crone.
Roy brushed to the top early with Dabra Day who chopped out the opening quarter in :28.1 before being overtaken in the backstretch by the pocket-sitting favourite, Angelonia. The new leader proceeded to cruised through middle splits of :59.1 and 1:28.3, but she weakened late. Dabra Day swept out in the lane and kicked home in :28.2 to win by 2-3/4 lengths over Pencils Down. Angelonia faded to finish third.
