One of the most consistent trotting mares racing at Woodbine Mohawk Park in recent weeks has been Royal Witch, and she continued on her winning ways thanks to a front-stepping score in the Monday main event.
Royal Witch powered to the lead from Post 1 for driver Trevor Henry and ushered the field through fractions of :27.1, :56.2 and 1:25.1. She then used a :27.3 closing quarter to seal the deal in 1:52.4. She was three-quarters of a length better than runner-up Free Willy Hanover. Third prize was earned by O Narutac Perfetto.
Ben Baillargeon trains the five-year-old daughter of Kadabra-Royal Tennis for Tom and Elizabeth Rankin of St. Catharines, Ont. The 15-time winner now owns a 4-1-1 record from nine starts this season. The victory bumped her lifetime earnings to $287,693.
