After two lively evenings of racing on September 25 and 26, Woodbine Thoroughbred gears up for yet another thrilling night card this Saturday, September 27, 2025. The Toronto oval has packed its program with eleven competitive contests across the All-Weather and Inner Turf, keeping fans and punters alike glued to every stride deep into the night. With temperatures hovering around a pleasant 15°C, the track is set to provide ideal conditions for what promises to be a pulsating evening of sport.
The action begins with a Claiming sprint over seven furlongs at 10:35 PM, carrying a purse of $52,400. Six fillies and mares line up, with Vrana (IRE), Princessonamission, Crystalaire (GB) and the progressive Kee’s Flatter bringing both experience and raw speed to the contest. A strong opener sets the tempo for what follows, blending established campaigners with up-and-comers looking to carve out their spot.
Race 2 goes to post at 11:04 PM, a Maiden Optional Claiming event over seven furlongs with $49,200 on offer. Eight fillies line up, including the Juicy Hanna, improving Sympatico, the consistent Miss Boujee and Outforarip, each with claims to break through in this company. This race could well turn into a showcase for rising three-year-olds.
The third contest at 11:33 PM switches to the Inner Turf for a stamina-testing mile and a half Allowance Optional Claiming, worth $114,600. Trainer Roger Attfield saddles Twowaycrossing, who looks primed for the staying trip, but will need to outlast rivals like Cornwall, Tour the City, and the consistent Zabo. It is a race where tactical positioning and patient riding could prove decisive.
At 12:02 AM, Race 4 brings back the All-Weather with another Maiden Optional Claiming sprint over seven furlongs carrying $65,700. Seven fillies feature, headlined by the promising Katherine’s Cub, alongside Let’s Go Souper, Earendel, and R Canadian Apple. For many of these lightly-raced prospects, this could be the night they finally shed their maiden tag.
Race 5, a Claiming dash over six furlongs at 12:31 AM for $56,100, adds further spice to the card. The consistent Priceless Will looks a solid player, with Country Living, Gilt Edge, and veteran Souper Success also in the frame. This mid-card contest has the hallmarks of a blanket finish.
The sixth race at 1:01 AM is a Maiden Special Weight for two-year-old fillies over seven furlongs, one of the night’s most anticipated races with $115,100 at stake. Among the juveniles, Tiz Practical and Katie’s Grace have already shown glimpses of talent, while Liveoaks Viewpoint and Heart Tap will also command respect. With precocious talent on display, this could produce a star of the future.
Race 7 at 1:32 AM keeps the tempo high with a seven-furlong Optional Claiming for fillies, purse $63,800. You Be the Judge is expected to be in the mix, but Tandhoneywithane, I Got Murphed, and Bound to Be True add plenty of intrigue to a balanced lineup. With seven contenders, strategy and pace judgment will be critical.
At 2:04 AM, the eighth contest unfolds, a Maiden Special Weight over six and a half furlongs offering $115,100. The unbeaten potential of Salted will draw plenty of eyes, but Shades of Jade, Moonlight Promises, and Ginger Zip ensure the spotlight is shared. This promises to be one of the most evenly matched races of the night.
Race 9, an Allowance Optional Claiming over seven furlongs at 2:36 AM, brings together a strong group for $114,600. Speedy Freeze comes in with form, while Happy Valentine, Secret Load, and Silent Sky are all proven on this surface. With a large field of ten, positioning could be the ultimate factor in deciding the outcome.
The tenth race, a six-furlong Allowance Optional Claiming sprint at 3:07 AM, offers $117,600 and features high-class performers. Bullet is sure to be popular but Golden Canary, Miss Bodacious (GB), and Dolce Sopresa also arrive with credentials. Expect fireworks in the stretch as speedsters collide.
Finally, the curtain falls with Race 11 at 3:38 AM, a Claiming contest over a mile and a sixteenth with $39,900 at stake. The field of nine features competitive fillies, with Nicki Is a Breeze looking strong, but Madam Gwen, Maxine Magic, and McKenzie Road all pose serious challenges. As the clock nears dawn, this nightcap ensures no shortage of suspense right to the wire.
With eleven diverse and competitive races lined up, Woodbine Thoroughbred is once again ready to showcase the best of Canadian racing under the lights.
