during opening weekend at Mohawk Racetrack.

Picking up the catch drive, Scott Zeron sent Warrawee Koine to command from Post 2 and the duo carved out early fractions of :27.4 and :57. Reigning Horse of the Year Dreamfair Eternal (Randy Waples) made her move from third nearing three-quarters in 1:24.4, but Warrawee Koine was untouchable once again, winning by two lengths in 1:51.4. Lady Latte (Chris Christoforou) closed well for second with Dreamfair Eternal finishing third.

Colin Johnson trains the red hot daughter of Astreos-My Gal Hall, who has won seven of her last eight starts. The five-year-old mare, owned by Dr. Michael Wilson of Rockwood, Ont., has put together a record reading 8-3-2 in 14 starts while earning $174,800 this year. He 20th career victory pushed her lifetime earnings close to the $400,000 mark.
