Milton, ON — A rich stakes-filled card on Saturday night (Sept. 19) at Woodbine Mohawk Park also included the eliminations for the Shes A Great Lady and Milton Stakes. 

A group of 14 two-year-old fillies met in a pair of C$35,000 Shes A Great Lady divisions, while 13 older pacing mares were split into two C$35,000 Milton eliminations. 

Driver Yannick Gingras swept the Shes A Great Lady eliminations, guiding Scarlett Hanover and Caviart Audrey to victories.  

Entering on a two-race win streak, Scarlett Hanover (Bettors Delight-Sammys Magic Girl) took the top spot at the half and engaged in a third-quarter battle with Best Head West before turning that rival aside and finishing off her mile in :27.2 to win in 1:53.2.

Notorious Pink (Bob McClure) finished second by a length and a half, while Best Head West (Trevor Henry) was third. Spellcheck Hanover (Doug McNair) and Alumni Seelster (James MacDonald) completed the top-five. 

Scarlett Hanover is now five for nine on the season with C$222,890 earned for owners Burke Racing Stable LLC, Frank Baldachino, JandT Silva Purnel & Libb and Weaver Bruscemi. Ashleigh Hensley trains the rookie pacing filly.

A :27.4 final-quarter locked down a fourth win in five starts for Caviart Audrey, who is now three for three since arriving at Mohawk Park. Her earnings move up to C$126,737 with the latest victory. 

Twin B Sunkissed (MacDonald) closed up well to finish second by three-quarters of a length. Paulas Bet Hanover (Michael Whelan), Voelz Delight (Sylvain Filion) and Lady Arthur (McClure)rounded out the top-five.
