Sid The Kid overcame an outside post and longshot odds to win the first of two $20,000 Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots divisions at Woodbine Mohawk Park by open lengths in a new lifetime mark. 

Scott Young sent the Benoit Baillargeon student from the gate in post seven, battling against Jack N Abs (Doug McNair) through the :28.3 opening quarter. Jack N Abs cleared after the first panel and Sid The Kid accepted a pocket ride on his helmet. After marks in :58 and 1:27.1, Sid The Kid made his next move, sweeping around the leader and sprinting home to a four-length triumph in 1:55.1. Market Banker (Chris Christoforou) nabbed second and Jack N Abs saved show.

Louis-Philippe Roy and Chantal Mitchell teamed up to send Grambling Hall to the gate in the second division in post eight. 

Post eight was no problem for Grambling Hall as he rocketed to the front. He was the first to click the quarter in :28 and continued onward from there with splits in :57.4 and 1:27.1. With a final panel in :28.3, Grambling Hall opened up to a 3-1/4-length triumph in 1:55.4. Elegant Resolve (Todd Ratchford) sprinted to a second place finish and The Canam Banker (Tyler Borth) rounded out the triactor.
