Sunday Woodbine wrap

Thanks in part to Belmont cancelling, the handle was a whopping $6.5 million on the 10-race card, which made for a $20 million weekend when you add in Saturday's $14.6 million handle.

Trainer Nick Nosowenko was on a high after sending out 10th-race winner Oculist, who was claimed by Ken and Sarah Ramsey and trainer Mike Maker. Nosowenko sent out 46-1 shot Cooler Mike to finish third in Saturday's Queen's Plate, and was keen on running the son of Giant Gizmo back in the second leg of the Canadian Triple Crown, the Prince of Wales Stakes at Fort Erie.

The POW could have a fairly small field that also includes the top two finishers in the Plate, Wonder Gadot and Aheadbyacentury, along with Flameaway.

Safe to Say won the second leg of the Canadian Triple Tiara, the $225K Bison City Stakes.

Tiz a Slam got away with murder on the front end in his upset score in the G3 Dominion Day.

Silent Sonet got her groove back while going from Tapeta to turf in the $102K Zadracarta Stakes, winning comfortably over the favored Niigon's Eclipse.

Armistice Day was a good-looking debut winner in a maiden special weight dash for 2yos. He appears to be a stakes winner in the making.

Artistico, a 10-1 outsider, held off the popular gray Tesseron to capture the opening leg of the Woodbine Turf Endurance Series. The claiming option on the starter series has been increased this year, from $40K to $45K.

Racing resumes on Wednesday night, when the Jackpot Hi 5 carryover is nearly $23K.
