More than half of the races run at Woodbine August 5-8 were won by different trainers and some 15 horses changed hands through bread-and-butter races over the four days.
The majority of last week’s races were claiming events and just two stakes races were run on the weekend, the restricted Lake Huron and Georgian Bay Stakes, but it was a good week for a wide variety of horsepeople, many of whom won their first races of the 2021 season.
Multiple race-winning owners and trainers included Heste Sport, Al and Bill Ulwelling, Martin Drexler, Zeljko Krcmar, Kevin Attard, Paul Buttigieg and Mark Casse.
