MGSW Avie’s Flatter Retired To Ontario’s Colebrook Farms

Tall Oaks homebred Avie's Flatter (Flatter), 2018 Canadian champion 2-year-old, is retiring from racing to stand stud at Ontario's Colebrook Farms. Winner of the Cup and Saucer S. and the Coronation Futurity at two, he went on at three to win Keeneland's GIII Kentucky Utilities Transylvania S. and place in each leg of the Canadian Triple Crown. From ages four to six, he took both the GII Neartic S. and the GII Connaught Cup and also placed in the GII Eclipse S. and the GIII Bold Venture S. He retires with a record of 20-7-3-3 and career earnings of $947,338.
“Avies Flatter will be greatly missed in our barn,” said trainer Josie Carroll. “He has been not only one of our most talented horses but also a great personality. A top horse for almost five years, he never failed to give 100 per cent. I can't wait to be part of his legacy.”

Woodbine Community Mourns Loss Of Trainer Ashlee Brnjas

Woodbine Entertainment and the entire Woodbine racing community is saddened to learn of the passing of Thoroughbred trainer Ashlee Brnjas.

Brnjas' final entry, Hit This Town, won the seventh race on Monday at Fort Erie.

After starting her equine career with hunters and jumpers, Brnjas took the advice of her father, John, and moved over to training Thoroughbreds for his Colebrook Farms. Brnjas made her official training debut in 2007, earned her first of 11 stakes victory in 2009 and conditioned the winners of 317 races and $10.6 million during her career.

Brnjas notably campaigned two-time Grade 1 Northern Dancer Stakes winner Johnny Bear.

Woodbine would like to extend its sincerest condolences to all the family and friends of Ashlee Brnjas.
