He is inching closer to 6,000 driving victories for his career, and now Sylvain Filion is newest force on the Woodbine Entertainment Group circuit.

"I moved to Milton a couple of months ago," Filion told Trot Insider.

The 39-year-old has been a driving fixture on the Quebec circuit. With uncertainty in the province at an all-time high, Filion has dedicated himself to the WEG circuit, although he still does get back to his native province to steer stock. As recently as Sunday, November 30, he recorded a five-bagger at Hippodrome de Montreal.

"So far I've been very satisfied with the move to Ontario. I've picked up some live drives and I hope to get some more going forward."

One who is used to setting the bar high, and then reaching it, Sylvain told Trot Insider that he hopes to be a force on the WEG scene.

"My goal for next year is to crack the top 10 at WEG."

Mr. Filion: I've watched you drive and have bet on you.
You sir, are no match for the WEG regulars.

SYLVAIN YOU ARE THE BEST IN QUEBEC OR ONTARIO OR ALL OVER THE WORLD. THIS IS TO BAD WHAT IS HAPPENING IN QUEBEC TO THE HORSEMEN.

Good move Sylvain. Vu que, Malheureusement, le monde des courses va très mal au Québec, je t'approuve et t'encourage à bien performer en Ontario. Tu as pas grand chose a envier aux Waples et Christofourou et Cie.

Bonne chance au "Red and Blue french ATTACK" wooooooo !!!

Une autre énorme perte pour le Québec, but if someone from this province can make it on the WEG circuit it's you Sylvain. Make us proud...as Always !

Sylvain
Tu représentes notre rêve, notre inspiration. SVP ne lâche pas. A toutes les fois que l'on te voit en course, c'est une partie du Québec que l'on voit et tant qu'il y aura des gens de talent comme toi qui se manifestent à l'étranger, cela nous donnera toujours espoir que notre industrie redeviendra un jour ce qu'elle a déjà été.

good luck Sylvain, you deserve it, too bad you must follow your dreams in ontario, quebecers are very proud of you.

M Filion

vous etes aussi bon que n`importe de qu`elle conducteur au monde.

felicitations

michael & carmen

good luck sylvain you will have no trouble cracking the top 10 at weg.RCR sure misses your driving skills you're one of the best.A real class act.

Salut Sylvain,

Continu ton excellent travail sur le côté de l'Ontario, ici au Québec pour le moment le monde des courses est anéanti.

Sylvain will crack the top ten next year at the WEG circuit. He's just as good as the rest of them down there if not better.
