Carrothers wins an allowance-level event at Gulfstream Park

Carrothers , a 4-year-old son of Mshawish   trained by Kent Sweezey, will make his Canadian debut Aug. 13 in the CA$150,000 Seagram Cup (G3) at Woodbine.

At 1 1/16 miles on the Tapeta, the Seagram Cup has drawn a field of nine 3-year-olds and up, including multiple grade 3 winner Frosted Over  from the team of Gary Barber and Mark Casse. The race shares the Sunday card with the CA$250,000 Bison City Stakes, second jewel in the Canadian Triple Tiara.

Owned by MyRacehorse, Medallion Racing, Parkland Thoroughbreds, and Edward Kelly Jr., Carrothers ships to Toronto on a winning note after taking a July 17 allowance-level event by 2 1/2 lengths going 1 1/16 miles on the Tapeta surface at Gulfstream Park.

"We were looking for races in Florida, to keep him down there on the synthetic, but at the end of the day, there wasn't a stakes race for him, so we made the decision to take a shot at Woodbine," said Harry Rice, New York racing manager with MyRacehorse.

Emma-Jayne Wilson has the call from post 7 while Frosted Over  breaks from post 4 under Patrick Husbands. The 4-year-old Frosted   colt won the July 1 Dominion Day Stakes (G3) to go with his 2021 Ontario Derby (G3) score but needs to rebound from a 10th-place finish in the July 30 Niagara Stakes. Also entered is Stella Artois Eclipse Stakes (G2) winner Artie's Storm , seeking a return to the winner's circle after running ninth last out in the July 23 Connaught Cup Stakes (G2).
