June 24 - Woodbine Mohawk Park Trainer Shawn Steacy surpassed $10 million in career earnings as his Outbound Train won one of seven $25,000 Ontario Sires Stakes Grassroots second-leg divisions on Tuesday, June 24 at Woodbine Mohawk Park. Outbound Train floated out from post six and drove on into the first turn for Bob McClure in the second sophomore trotting male split, advancing parked-out to take the lead at the quarter in :28. Go Blue (Doug McNair) rolled to the front in a backstretch brush, seizing command before the half in :57 and heading into the final turn with the lead. Outbound Train departed the two hole midway around the bend and chugged along the outside track through three-quarters in 1:26.2 with Go Blue holding firm. The two were flat out at the eighth pole with Go Blue still in front, but Outbound Train produced the most trot in deep-stretch and got up by a neck to score in 1:54.3. Hp Lucas (Tyler Borth) finished third. The winning colt notched his second career victory in his Ontario Sires Stakes debut. Outbound Train , who debuted in Kentucky, moved to Ontario in May and broke his maiden in his second try north of the border.
