If you thought a podcast covering the week after the Queen’s Plate would be an anticlimax, with nothing to talk about, listen to this one and admit you were wrong.
There was a monster card of harness racing Saturday night from Mohawk - the William Wellwood Memorial, the Eternal Camnation, Jimmy Freight and Bulldog Hanover, both impressive in Canadian Pacing Derby Eliminations.
At Woodbine on Sunday, 4 Yearling Sales Stakes races.
We’re still buzzing about Moria and in our Moria pack, trainer Kevin Attard tells us how the Queen’s Plate changed his life. Owner Donnato Lanni of X-Men Racing explains how a group of harness men came to own Moira and how his children come up with colourful names, and Joe Nevills of the Paulick Report explains why Moira is a big story in the US.
We’ve got the Travers Stakes from Saratoga and chaos at Mohawk Park last Monday in which no one was hurt thanks to safety protocol. Then there’s this race from The Track On 2 in which the top 4 horses all shared the same name. And those listening to the entire podcast will be treated to music from Dire Straits, The Tubes, Norman Greenbaum, The Bobby Fuller Four and, of course, Jay and the Americans.
