Fort Erie Race Track was the scene for the THIRD leg of the ONTARIO SIRES HERITAGE SERIES for three-year-olds by Ontario stallions, and two races were run at 6 1/2 furlongs on the dirt.
The RONDEAU BAY STAKES for three-year-olds went to TAKEMYBOURBONNEAT, a newcomer to the series, who strolled to a 2 3/4 length win under Sofia Vives for owners ICON Racing Stables and trainer Anthony Adamo.
Takemybourbonneat (Souper Speedy) was claimed from her previous race for $25,000 (a win for trainer Mike Mattine) and Mattine had claimed the filly from breeder Keowee Racing Stable. On Tuesday, in her first dirt attempt, Takemybourbonneat sped the distance in 1:16.43 for her fourth career win in nine races.
RHAENYRA remains on top by points based on the 10-7-5-3-2-1 scale.

GO KART MOZART won the Lake Erie Stakes (both stakes are worth $100,000 in total purse) in 1:17.32, holding off his former stablemate Back River to win by half a length, also with Vives riding. Owned and bred by Frank DiGiulio Jr. and trained by Bob Tiller, Go Kart Mozart is another winner by Souper Speedy.
The fast gelding won the Lake Huron Stakes, the first leg of the series, and was third to Dark Screen in the second leg. Dark Screen, caught very wide and against the favourable grain of the track, wound up fifth. The 10 points earned by Go Kart Mozart puts him at 25 points. His time of 1:17.32 was a bit slower than that of Takemybourbonneat.
