Many of harness racing's top trotters converged at Mohawk Racetrack for Saturday's $2.6 million stakes night featuring the $687,000 Canadian Trotting Classic and $632,000 Maple Leaf Trot.
Hannelore Hanover was looking to make it back-to-back wins for the mares in the $632,000 Maple Leaf Trot following the currently sidelined Bee A Magician's victory in last year's edition, but Resolve avenged his 2015 defeat in the trotting classic for trainer/driver Ake Svanstedt.
Hannelore Hanover (Yannick Gingras), the 3-5 favourite after being supplemented to the Maple Leaf Trot for $45,000 and winning her elimination with ease, retook the lead from 70-1 longshot Musical Rhythm (Mario Baillargeon) past the :26.4 first quarter before coming under attack by Canada's reigning Older Trotting Horse of the Year. Svanstedt right-lined Resolve from third approaching the half in :55.3 and gained a neck lead outside, but Hannelore Hanover fought back on the way to three-quarters in 1:23. The battled continued into the stretch, with Resolve eventually taking over and drawing one length clear just before the wire to win in 1:51.4. Hannelore Hanover finished second with Shake It Cerry (David Miller) closing off cover to make it a 2-3 finish for the mares.
Resolve, who also won his elimination last weekend in a older trotting horse track record time of 1:51.1, paid $4.30 to win as the 2-1 second choice. The five-year-old millionaire son of Muscle Hill and Anikawiesahalee now boasts stakes wins in the Cutler, Cashman and Maple Leaf Trot following his Spring campaign in Sweden.
"He's a great horse and he did a good job today," said Svanstedt in a post-race interview. "He left very fast and then he was first-over the second half. He did a very good job.
"She [Hannelore Hanover] raced very good. She's just four years old and she's a mare; she was very good."
Up next, Svanstedt said he is hoping Resolve will be invited to the International Trot at Yonkers Raceway.
