The field is set for The Raceway at Western Fair District's signature event, the $150,000 Camluck Classic, presented by Seelster Farms, after post positions were drawn during the track’s pre-game show on Monday, May 26.

The Grade 3 stakes event will be featured during the London, Ont. oval's meeting-closing card on Friday, May 30. First race post time is 5:50 p.m. 

The Camluck Classic field features Brue Hanover, who has been perfect in seven starts at Woodbine Mohawk Park since joining the Dave Menary stable in March, including a sweep of the New Holland Series and back-to-back sub-1:50 victories in Preferred action. Another top contender is millionaire Chase H Hanover, the Borgata Series runner-up earlier this month at Yonkers Raceway, from the Cory Stratton stable.

Some of the sport’s top pacing mares will also be in the spotlight in the $50,000 Forest City Pace, including the race's two-time defending champion So Much More for trainer Don Beatson, along with recent Margaret Juravinski Memorial winner Odds On Platinum from the Ian Moore stable and trainer Ashleigh Hensley's streaking Caviar N Crackers, who has been dominating Mohawk's Mares Preferred class this month.

The stacked undercard will include a leg of the Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots Series for three-year-old colt pacers and a quartet of London Classic Sale Series finals.
