Down the Stretch for June 19, 2023
from Down The Stretch Podcast Hosted by TMDS
The 40th North America Cup provided a full night of thrills and, unfortunately, spills at Mohawk Park – wait until you hear about Doug McNair’s night. Wonderful things from great jockeys – Emma-Jayne Wilson won 4 races on Saturday afternoon at Woodbine. Brian Bell won 5 at Ajax Downs on Sunday. Patrick Husbands has a strike rate of over 25%. We find out from the 50 year-old Husbands why he’s still so good. Jockeys’ agent Brandon Fairlie - known also as Agent Orange - tells Down The Stretch about his perfect afternoon at Woodbine with his jockeys Rachel Slevinsky and Omar Moreno. WEG executive Klaus Ebner explains how the new bet, the Swinger Omni, came to fruition, and Garnet Barnsdale tipped us on a dead heat between brothers, a 69 year old jockey still winning, Frank Mirahmadi calling a race that included a horse named after him, and Ken Middleton calling a race where it seemed every horse had the word Bettor in it.
