Race Recaps Wonder Gadot Gallantly Wires G3 Mazarine October 7, 2017 Race Recaps Wonder Gadot Gallantly Wires G3 Mazarine October 7, 2017 By: Curtis "Magic" Kalleward twitteremail Share: share on facebook share on twitter share on linkedin email this article TORONTO, ON – Gary Barber’s Wonder Gadot made mincemeat of her three competitors, easily wiring Saturday’s Grade 3, $125,000 Mazarine Stakes at Woodbine. Breaking sharply from the second post under Patrick Husbands, Wonder Gadot immediately took the lead and set splits of :24.87, :49.86, and 1:13.93 while briefly being challenged by Shamrock Rose down the backstretch. Off the turn, Wonder Gadot took off and put away the field in fine style, crossing the wire first by 6 lengths in a final time of 1:44.14 for the 1 1/16-mile race over the Tapeta all-weather course. “She’s beautiful, she’s really nicely built,” said assistant trainer Kathryn Sullivan. “For a 2-year-old filly, she’s solid and has some substance. She’s just really impressive.” Shamrock Rose held second, finishing 1 1/4 lengths ahead of Ladies Night, with Avie’s Mineshaft completing the order of finish. Oldfashioned Style was scratched. After breaking her maiden, Wonder Gadot followed with a third-place effort next out in the Grade 1 Natalma, both of which were contested on the Woodbine turf. The switch to the all-weather surface seemed to do well for the Mark Casse trainee. “The two turf races taught her a lot how to relax because anytime you work on the ‘Poly’, we put horses in front about 5 to 15 lengths, and in two jumps, she’s past them,” Husbands said. “On the turf, she’s a more relaxed filly, but on the ‘Poly’, she’s the real deal.” Wonder Gadot returned $4.20 to win. There was no place or show betting. Be sure to check the Results page for details on every thoroughbred and quarter horse race in North America, including how our PREMIUM PICKS performed!
