Off at odds of 24-1, So Much More soared from off the pace to pull the upset in the $32,000 headlining pace at Woodbine Mohawk Park on Saturday (Feb. 8).
Away sixth from her second-tier post, So Much More sat nine lengths off pacesetter Nirvana Seelster, who cleared command from post 9 heading to a :26.3 first quarter. East End, away third, soon angled off the pegs and rushed by Nirvana Seelster passing a :54.4 half. So Much More meanwhile raced seventh from third over in a stalled flow pacing past three-quarters in 1:23.
Driver James MacDonald angled So Much More towards the centre of the track entering the stretch and gradually reeled in East End, sliding by to a one-and-a-quarter length victory in 1:50.4. American Virgin, from second over, rallied for second while Nirvana Seelster popped pocket but gave chase in third.
A four-year-old mare by Big Jim, So Much More won her 21st race from 39 starts, earning $291,050. Trainer Don Beatson co-owns the $51.60 winner with Kenneth Beatson and Cole England.
