Preferred Repeat For Whiskey Tax
Whiskey Tax extended his winning streak to two in a row thanks to a 1:53.1 triumph in Monday’s $34,000 Preferred Trot at Woodbine Racetrack.
The majority of the betting public was infatuated with Il Sogno Dream, but he failed to hit the ticket in his debut for trainer Victory Puddy.
Whiskey Tax got away third for driver Sylvain Filion, who watched Damfoolrmillionair fire to the front in his debut on the medication Lasix. He served up fractions of :27.1, :56.4 and 1:24.4, but he came up empty in the lane. Whiskey Tax angled off the rail in the lane and fired home in :27.3 to win by two lengths over Slip Into Glide. Taking home third prize was Bags For All.
Trainer Tom Durand co-owns the veteran with his wife, June Durand, and partner Allan Smith. The partnership has watched the seven-year-old son of Revenue S-Bourbon Belle manufacture a 5-3-2 record from 18 starts this season. The 14-time winner is quickly closing in on $900,000 in career earnings.
