There were 16 winning tickets in Friday's popular Stronach 5, each returning $6,382.70.
The largest payoff in the five-race sequence featuring races from Laurel Park, Santa Anita Park and Gulfstream Park and an industry-low 12-percent takeout was $9.20.
Friday's sequence kicked off with Wonderwall, a 3-year-old filly from the barn of leading trainer Claudio Gonzalez, winning Laurel's eighth race followed by Candygramformongo winning Laurel's ninth race.
The Stronach 5 moved to Santa Anita Park for its third race. Reddam Racing LLC's That Corey, a 3-year-old son of Square Eddie who finished second at Del Mar last time out, ran away from nine others on a mile turf course to break his maiden.
The last two legs were both contested at Gulfstream over the turf. Star Weaver, a lightly-raced 4-year-old by Dialed In, led gate-to-wire to win the ninth race for his second victory in his last three starts. The sequence concluded with Gulfstream's 10th race and Golovkin holding off Lord of War by a nose.
