Woodbine horses to watch: Week of Nov. 16

ENDEAVOR’S DREAM
Trainer: Nick Gonzalez
Last race: Nov. 8, 5th
Finish: 2nd by 1/2
Beyer: 65
He broke a bit slowly in his debut in a five-furlong maiden special for Ontario-sired 2-year-olds. After racing in 10th on the outside on the turn, he closed powerfully through the stretch and then galloped out well.

SOCCER RYAN
Trainer: John LeBlanc Jr.
Last race: Nov. 8, 5th
Finish: 4th by 4 1/4
Beyer: 53
After breaking like a bullet, he settled into a stalking position and then mounted a five-wide bid before flattening out to finish behind Endeavor’s Dream (see above).

SILENT YET DEADLY
Trainer: Mike De Paulo
Last race: Nov. 6, 3rd
Finish: 2nd by 1 3/4
Beyer: 73
After breaking from the rail in a large field, he rallied for second for the third straight time. The one-time winner was competing out of his condition in this nonwinners-of-three Ontario-sired allowance.

PECAN PIE
Trainer: Breeda Hayes
Last race: Nov. 8, 1st
Finish: 4th by 3 1/2
Beyer: 46
Off a good second, she was favored in this nine-furlong maiden special but encountered traffic trouble on the far turn and didn’t get rolling until it was too late.
