Down the Stretch for August 30, 2021

from Down The Stretch Podcast Hosted by TMDS

There was a huge Sunday card at Woodbine – 4 Stakes races, all for horses that went through the Canadian Thoroughbred Horse Society sales. And this came the day after Mohawk presented 7 Stakes races. All these in this podcast. Host Peter Gross speaks with Mitchell Kursner, who didn’t really think he was breeding a Queen’s Plate horse when he took his mare, Duchess Dancer to Bodemeister. We also have trainer Julia Carey, who inherited Safe Conduct for the Plate weekend when the horse’s trainer couldn’t make it. It was Essential Quality winning the Travers Stakes Saratoga and have you ever seen a horse try to bite a rival in a race? It happened during the stretch run of a $600,000 Stakes race, also at Saratoga. And when we heard that Tony Dandeo, an 86 year-old harness driver, won a race at Freehold, we got the race and his comments.
