  • Down the Stretch for September 2, 2024
    Sep 1 2024
    Lots of Taylor Swift in this podcast – her main squeeze, Travis Kelce bought into a share of Swift Delivery who went off as the favourite in the Toronto Cup. Scott Zeron is not quite as famous as Taylor Swift, but he produced two huge hits at Mohawk, winning the Canadian Pacing Derby and Maple Leaf Trot on the same night. Trainer Kevin Attard talks about his King’s Plate winning filly, Caitlinhergrtness and one of her owners, Elliot Walden of Winstar Farm, tells us why the filly won’t run in the Prince of Wales and how she was named after basketball star, Caitlin Clark. Teenage jockey Pietro Moran had a mixed bag Friday at Woodbine – 3 straight wins, then a DQ. Very similar to the 2-win, 1-DQ afternoon by Rachel Isaacs at Ajax Downs. And the cheesiest of stories – how a screwup at Mohawk resulted in a horse winning a race and paying... nothing to win.

    The first King’s Plate ever to be run on a Friday and for Kevin Attard and Rafael Hernandez, it was worth waiting for as the only filly in the race knocked off the boys. We have several other Stakes races from Woodbine and the mid-summer classic, the Travers from Saratoga, which was almost won by another filly. Harness driver Jordan Stratton may be American, but he tells us how he helped write two very big Canadian stories. Ajax Downs had 6 races last week and we have the call of each one, and 10 year-old Clara Smith shows us why she has a Stakes level talent when it comes to writing about race horses.

    It had never happened before. The King’s Plate got rained out! Woodbine CEO, Mike Copeland announces when it will be run. Kevin Attard says Woodbine made the right decision. Attard is also in this podcast talking about his great mare, Moira winning the $500,000 Beverly D Stakes in Virginia. Trainer Blake MacIntosh gets our props for crashing over the $20 million mark with a horse named Mamba. The classy pacer, Nijinsky returned to Mohawk and bossed a field around. Jockey Diego Benitez was the star last week at Ajax Downs, winning 3 races, including the feature. Garnet Barnsale gives us the Gold Cup and Saucer race from Charlottetown. And just how sensational was Yannick Gingras’ Friday afternoon at Harrah’s Philly? The great Blues singer/guitarist Sister Rosetta Tharpe and Mambo Number 5 performer, Lou Bega help this podcast along.
