Woodbine Mohawk Park |Selections-Sat July 25,2026

The centerpiece of Saturday’s program is the Ontario Sires Stakes GOLD Division, a race that always delivers elite speed, championship‑level talent, and the kind of tactical chess match that defines mid‑summer OSS action. This division brings together the province’s most accomplished sophomores — proven stakes winners, rising stars hitting their best stride, and longshots with the right form cycle to shock the board.

This is the race that shapes the early‑season hierarchy and sets the tone for the rest of the OSS campaign. 

Race 2 will provide another battle of ONTARIO SIRES STAKES: GOLD LEG 3: 3 YEAR OLD PACING FILLIES.
A Clean Deal vs Daya will be front and centre as the feature race on the 13 race program and it all gets started with first race post time set for 6:30pm
