The Saturday, April 3rd program at Woodbine Racetrack featured a very odd occurrence when three horses wearing the number 10 saddle pad won three consecutive races on the card.
The 10-10-10 winning pick-3 combination is the first in recent memory and believed to be a harness racing first at the Rexdale oval. The rare pick-3 combination, involving were Hour Lavec, Acceptable Risk and V I P (races 4-6) was worth $187.75.
The claiming action was quite intense this past week with 10 horses changing hands for a combined claiming cost of $134,000.
The largest payout of the week was the eighth race superfecta on Friday night’s program that generated a return of $15,254.70.
