Woodbine Mohawk Park has a 13-race card to wrap up the week. The headliner rolls in Race 8, the Milton Stakes Final with a $205,000 purse. Also on the card will be the Canadian Trotting Classic and Metro Pace Eliminations. My focus will be on the Pick 3 sequence which includes the Milton Pace, and it starts in Race 7.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 7 (9:32 PM EST)

8-Redwood Hanover (8-1)-Will overlook the last start, which was the Aria at Yonkers and will try to catch a solid price to start the sequence. Started a long way back in the 1-1/16 mile contest and that sealed its fate that day. Dexter Dunn gets his 2nd straight assignment, and the Anthony Beaton trainee likes Mohawk, hitting the board in 13 of 21 races with 6 wins. Not sure the 8-1 morning line will hold up. Willing to take a swing Dunn will have the 4-year-old close enough to the leaders at the top of the lane to be able to take a picture.

Race 8 (9:54 PM EST)

1-Twin B Joe Fresh (4/5)-The Chris Ryder monster will lose again at some point but it hasn't happened since May 19. That was the first start of this year. Tonight, doesn't draw one of the best posts, and there are some nice horses in this contest but there isn't one in Joe's category. Could lose, it's possible, but not looking for that to happen.

Race 9 (10:16 PM EST)

8-Highland Kismet (4/5)-Now, in this leg comes a 3-year-old trotting monster that has banked over $580k this year. That total would be much more if a generational trotter named Karl wasn't in the same category. The Mark Etsell trainee has won 6 of 7 at Wbsb. The only loss was following a sick scratch, that night was 11-lenghts back at the 1st call and lost by a half-length. All systems should be on go, set a new lifetime mark of 151.3 last time in the Simcoe. Could go faster but probably not here in an Elim for the Canadian Trotting Classic.
