Legzy
Grabs Gold At Kawartha
A winner by a neck in last week�s Ontario Sires Stakes
Gold elimination, Legzy�s margin of victory shrank further on Thursday night
at Kawartha Downs, but the tough minded freshman trotting filly still got
the job done.
Starting from Post 2 in the $130,000 Gold Final,
driver Sylvain Filion floated
Legzy off the starting gate into third, sitting
behind early combatants Tymal Tessa and Her Name Is
Lola. Through the :28.3 opening quarter and :58.3
half clocked by Her Name Is Lola, Filion and Legzy
continued to sit third, waiting until the pacesetter
was approaching the 1:29 three-quarters to make
their move up the outside.Easily wresting the
lead away from Her Name Is Lola, Legzy turned for
home just over one length ahead of her peers. When
Moms Apple Pie stepped out to challenge in the
stretch, Legzy dug in and fought her way to a nose
victory in 1:59, four-fifths of a second faster than
she posted in last week�s elimination round..
Moms Apple Pie, who tailed Legzy throughout the
race, had to settle for second, with Muscle Mass
closing smartly to be third. Elimination winners
Tymal Tessa and Her Name Is Lola completed the top
five. Fan favourite Bee A Magician, who driver Rick
Zeron selected over Legzy, made an early error and
was never a factor in the race.
Joining Legzy in the winner�s circle were owner-breeders Ted Wilson of Seagrave and Michael Pozefsky of Saratoga Springs, NY and trainer Rob Fellows of Rockwood. The daughter of Amigo Hall-Sahalee has banked $85,000 in her first two career starts, following in the footsteps of her $496,049 winning half-sister Wilsonator who was also a Gold Final winner at two.
Legzy will have her first opportunity to defend her Gold Final title when the two-year-old trotting fillies make their second Gold Series appearance July 15 at Flamboro Downs.
