The big Stakes races were all at Mohawk with 4 SBOA Finals. Last Monday was vintage Jody Jamieson night at Mohawk when he steered home 5 winners. Friday at Woodbine, 50-year-old Shane Ellis had 3 riding assignments – he won with all 3 for the biggest day of his 25 year career. Down The Stretch was at Ajax Downs for their Opening Day and we chatted with Emilio Trotta, Ralph Peason, Cassandra Jeschke, Chantelle Bourgeois, Ramiro Castillo and Alexis Sanchez. We’ve got an amazing Kentucky Derby pre-race prediction from Kaitlin Free and some animated audio from some Aussie race analysts as they buried the Churchill Downs stewards for missing Tyler Gaffalione’s arm wrestling in deep stretch.
