What The Hill now has three wins in seven starts 
Seven And Seven now has three wins in six starts to begin his career |
Elimination mania hit Mohawk Racetrack on Friday evening as the Campbellville oval hosted a long list of talented trotters for the William Wellwood Memorial and the Elegantimage Stakes.
All eyes were on heavily-favoured Rubio in the first elimination, but a break behind the starting gate took him out of contention and left the door wide-open for another youngster to step up and score a major win.
That youngster was What The Hill, who posted an impressive victory in 1:55.4 for catch-driver Chris Christoforou. Trainer Ron Burke had to call a last-minute audible when programmed driver Brett Miller was stranded in the U.S. after plane issues grounded him along with fellow teamsters Dave Miller, John Campbell and Corey Callahan.
Christoforou got away fourth with the son of Muscle Hill- K T Cha Cha while Signal Hill marched to the lead and chopped out the first quarter in :28.4. As soon as the field hit the backstretch, Christoforou hit the throttle. What The Hill rocketed off the rail and rolled to the lead. He sliced out remaining splits of :58.3 and 1:27.4 before using a :27.4 kicker to fend off a determined Signal Hill. Third prize went to a hard-charging Jake.
The victory improved What The Hill’s record to 3-3-0 from seven starts for the partnership of Burke Racing Stable LLC, Our Horse Cents Stables, J And T Silva Stable LLC and Deo Volente Farms LLC. The $15,000 payday bumped the rookie’s earnings to $243,233.
It was a similar storyline in the second elimination as race favourite Victor Gio IT made a backstretch miscue, which turned out to be great news for Seven And Seven. The homebred turned a two-hole trip into a 1:56 victory for Team Durand.
Longshot Soho Hanover cut out fractions of :27.4, :58.2 and 1:27.3, but he couldn’t fend off the pocket-sitting Seven And Seven in the closing strides. Tom Durand urged his colt home in :28 to post the win by a length over King On The Hill and Soho Hanover.
Trainer Tom Durand co-owns the son of Chapter Seven-Alley Oop with his wife, June, and partner Allan Smith of Oakville, Ont. From six starts the colt has managed to assemble a 3-1-0 record while banking $51,768 in the process.
The top five finishers from each elimination advance to the rich final. Here's how they'll line up on the gate:
