Toronto, Ont. – Gary Barber and Team Valor International LLCs Elysian Returned to winning form thanks to a determined score in the $ 150,000 Seaway Stakes (G3) on Saturday afternoon in Woodbine.
It was Stablemates Olivia Rose, outside, and Stormcast, the 9-5 Mutuel Choice, who asked early in front in the Zeven-Furlong main rail function for mares and mares, 3-year-olds and up. Colleague Mark Casse -Stagee and defensive Seaway Champion Ticker Tape Home were third, and Elysian Field settled in an opening quarter in the sixth: 22.42.
The Casse-Trio continued to see the road-in the same order in half: 44.68, while Pietro Moran, on board Elysian Field, began to make stable wins with a five-way movement halfway through the bend in the house.
With less than 220 meters to run, Elysian Field hit the front, while Ticker Tape Home and Stormcast looked inside again, while a little frankky flooded the rail to get into the mix.
Elysian Field arrived at the wire a winner of a length. Ticker Tape Home was second, three -quarters of a length for stormcast. A bit froskey was fourth. Weigh the risks was scratched.
The last time was 1: 21.87.
“Of course there was a lot of speed in the race,” said Moran. “I just tried to get her out, get her in a good place where she felt at ease. We were in a great place. And when I called her, she shot.
“She is versatile,” Moran continued. “I mean, you’ve seen her record. Her talent speaks for herself.”
The 5-year-old daughter of Hard Smart Strike Mare Elysian, supplemented with the Zeeway, is now 5-6-0 from 16 Starts, returned to the races of a resignation of eight months on July 11 and finished ninth at Colonial Downs.
Bred by Anderson Farms Ont. Inc., the chestnut was the Woodbine Oaks winner of 2023 and King’s Plate Runner-Up that same year.
Elysian Field was a purchase of $ 70,000 at the OBS company 2022 June Two-year-olds and horses of Racing Age Sale.
She paid $ 9 for the Seawaw victory.
