Traceur Hanover continued to prep for his 2016 season during Mohawk Racetrack’s Tuesday, July 26 qualifying session, as the four-year-old son of Western Ideal faced the starting gate for trainer Richard Moreau and driver Sylvain Filion.
Traceur Hanover took to the track for Race 1 and lined up in Post 5.
The career winner of six of 22 races and $437,548 in purses was all business during the session, as he recorded a gate-to-wire victory in 1:53.2. He cut the fractions in :27.3, :56 and 1:24.3 and sealed the deal with a :28.4 final quarter.
