6. The Bear A Cuda swam upstream in the first race at Woodbine Mohawk Park on Oct. 27, going the overland trip to pull off an 81-1 stunner for driver Jody Jamieson and trainer Gerard Demers. The three-year-old gelding raced uncovered on the rim for three-eighths of a mile before getting a helmet to follow, then advanced in the flow and weaved through traffic in the stretch to win by a head for a $164.60 payoff.

After being passed by Open Fire, Infinite Horizon sat the pocket into the stretch, then hunted down that opponent to win for the first time since 2023 — paying $168.70 at the windows. View Chart
