The Woodbine Oaks is in less than two weeks and a small group of fillies are set to try for the $500,000 purse.
Piper's Gift
Almost half of the top 10 contenders for the Woodbine Oaks/King's Plate are homebreds for the Krembil family.
Trainer Dale Desruisseaux and jockey Rafael Hernandez copped both stakes races at Woodbine this weekend with three-year-olds.
A new face to Woodbine is the stakes-winning G T Five Hundred, recently purchased by Dominic Delillo's Centennial Farms Niagara.
The Krembil family has a host of Canadian-bred three-year-olds pointing to the Canadian classics and Blind River got the ball rolling.
Piper's Gift kept a streak going with an easy win in the Princess Elizabeth and longshot Fire and Wine stuns in Coronation.
Trainer Dale Desruisseaux is on a roll, as is jockey Rafael Hernandez, as they combined to win the two-year-old stakes with the Chiefswood filly.
The Sunday card features a pair of seven-furlong main track events for two-year-olds and includes first-timers, maidens and sharp winners.
