This is the first Down The Stretch Podcast this year with racing hilites from all three genres in Ontario. We have Stakes races from Woodbine as Pink Lloyd was trying to win the Jacques Cartier for a 4th time. It was a mind-boggling week at Mohawk. Driver James MacDonald had two 5-win nights and a 4-bagger as well. Jody Jamieson, Doug McNair and Sylvain Filion also put together 4-win nights. But maybe the athletic brilliance of the week belongs to 27 year-old Rachael Isaacs. On her first day as a professional jockey, Isaacs won 3 straight races at Ajax Downs. Ever hear of a mare giving birth...then coming back and winning a race? Who is the most wreckless jockey at Woodbine? Agent Tony Esposito thinks he knows and isn’t shy about pointing out why his jockey Rafael Hernandez is out of action.
