Gears of War looking to keep streak alive at Dresden

Gears of War looking to keep streak alive at Dresden
Eight-year-old gelding GEARS OF WAR has a taste on winning and is hoping to keep his winning streak alive by making it three in a row Sunday afternoon at Dresden Raceway. The Geartogear gelding went 60 straight races without a win dating back to December 22, 2014 when he visited the winner’s circle at Western Fair Raceway in London.

GEARS OF WAR went wire-to-wire on June 26 to break his year and a half long futility streak and then came from off the pace last week to win again for owner/trainer Jeff Graham of Glencoe.

GEARS OF WAR will have his work cut out for him as he is a 5-1 shot, scoring from post four. The morning line favourite is RIGHTINTHEKISSER, scoring from post two, and dropping from a 12,000 claimer at Grand River. MAGNUM SEELSTER is scoring from post six and is looking to win his fourth in a row for leading dash driver Tyler Borth.

Dresden Raceway is also holding Derby Day Sunday as they are asking all patrons to wear their best hats similar to the Kentucky Derby. The bigger and fancier the hat the better! Dresden BIA businesses will be giving away prizes on Sunday after every race including a prize for the best hat!

Post time is set for 1:30 p.m. for the 10-race card Sunday afternoon.
