Sunday Woodbine recap

Pink Lloyd's achievements keep mounting. He won the $125K Achievement for the second year in a row, giving him an unprecedented 11 straight Woodbine stakes victories, while going over $1 million in Canadian earnings in the process. He was one of four wins on the card for jockey Eurico Da Silva, and the second of two wins on the day for trainer Robert Tiller, who's having a sensational spring.

Pink Lloyd figures to reappear July 8 in the $100K Shepperton, a six and a half-furlong stakes which he won last year when it was run in August.

After missing the break from the one-hole, Conquest Lemonraid closed strongly from far back to finish a clear second over a tired Lokinforpursemonee, who was softened up in a speed duel with Pink Lloyd. Trainer John Ross deserves credit for getting Rafael Hernandez to take it to the heavy favorite early, instead of sitting back to protect money.

First-timer Sav gave Ontario freshman sire Big Screen his first winner with his first starter when she romped in a four and a half-furlong maiden special for 2yos. She could be a factor in the July 7 My Dear Stakes, and subsequent restricted stakes.

The handle was $4.54 million on the expanded 11-race card, which had a speed bias on the main track.

Racing resumes with a seven-race card on Wednesday night, when the Jackpot Hi 5 carryover is nearly $10K.
