Crown deadlines near

The countdown has begun on entries for the $4.4 million Breeders Crown events, to be raced Saturday, Oct. 28, at Woodbine Racetrac in Toronto. The $500,000 (guaranteed) Breeders Crown sophomore events carry a supplemental tag of $62,500. Supplemental declarations for the four 3-year-old events are due and
payable on Monday, Oct. 16, by noon in the racing secretary's office at Mohawk Racetrack.

A one-time supplemental payment makes a horse eligible to subsequent years’ Breeders Crown events under the normal schedule of payments. There are no supplements for the 2-year-old races.

The starting fee is included in the supplemental amounts, and all supplemental money, minus the starting fee, may be added to the purse of the individual events.

Horses eligible to the Breeders Crown events must enter by 10:30 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 17, also at the Mohawk race office. Eliminations for all 2-year-old trotters and pacing fillies, if needed, will occur on Friday, Oct 20. The remaining five eliminations will be raced Saturday, Oct. 21.

The connections of elimination winners may pick their post position for the finals. The 3-year-old colt races will be drawn at the Breeder Crown press conference on Tuesday, Oct. 24, at the WEGZ (Woodbine Entertainment Gaming Zone) Stadium Bar in Vaughan, Ontario.
