Caren headed to Carotene Stakes
RACE REPLAY IS NOT AVAILABLE
ETOBICOKE, Ontario – Caren recorded her third straight win and her first graded stakes victory in the Grade 3 Ontario Colleen Stakes over a mile on turf last time out Sept. 24. She will seek her fourth straight in Sunday’s $150,000 Carotene Stakes.
The Carotene is for Ontario-bred 3-year-old fillies and covers 1 1/8 miles on Woodbine’s E.P. Taylor turf course.
Caren breezed five furlongs in 1:01.00 on Sunday on the Tapeta. Trainer Michael De Paulo said the filly has been working well since the Ontario Colleen. De Paulo noted that the Carotene likely will be Caren’s last start this year. The daughter of Society’s Chairman is a heavy favorite to win Canadian champion 3-year-old filly honors.
Caren started her season with a sixth-place finish on dirt in the Any Limit Stakes at Gulfstream Park in March but has since hit the board in each of her six Woodbine starts. She was a force through the Canadian Triple Tiara series, finishing third in the Woodbine Oaks before going on to win the Bison City and Wonder Where stakes to begin her win streak.
