Down the Stretch for August 8, 2022

This podcast includes the Ontario Colleen Stakes from Woodbine and a night at the Horse Racing Hall of Fame Inductions. We talked with Gary Boulanger, Sue Leslie, Paul MacDonnell, Vicki Pappas and Randy Waples. Garnet Barnsdale was at the Meadowlands Saturday night to witness the biggest upset in the 97-year history of the famed Hambletonian. Jockey Amanda Vandermeersch talks about the first win of her career and agent Brandon Fairlie is working on a riding resurgence for the career of veteran Omar Moreno. Canadian quarter horse champ Had To Be Ivory pulled off another win at Ajax Downs. We’ve got an exactor from Mohawk – the biggest payoff in 59 years and Peter Gross, the host of this podcast does the hard work at the official opening of the Stella Artois Lounge at Woodbine, because if someone doesn’t eat the giant shrimps, the Asian chicken and the brisket sliders, how would anyone know what it is like?
