The Jackpot Hi 5 pool vaulted over the $500K plateau after the heavily-favored Bad Nana overcame a tardy start to win the nightcap going away. The carryover heading into Saturday is $514K.

Madison Way, under Luis Contreras, posted a 7-1 upset in the featured NW3 OS allowance/$40K claimer, in which she defeated Little Christy and the favored Marcherdownthealley after a pace-pressing journey in the turf sprint.

Rafael Hernandez swept races 3-5, a Pick 3 that returned $179. The debuting Hatch Gate overhauled the favored Gimbala at the eighth pole before drawing clear to win a six-furlong maiden special for OS 2yo fillies. Hatch Gate, a Roger Attfield-trained daughter of Old Forester, could reappear Aug. 30 in the rich Muskoka Stakes, for graduates of local yearling sales.

The classy Big Bazinga was claimed from a drop-down score for $25K by trainer Kevin Attard from trainer Katerina Vassilieva.
