Friday’s Stronach 5 Turns Into $196.30 ‘Chalkfest’ With Five Short-Priced Winners

Short prices resulted in 863 winning tickets in Friday's Stronach 5 with each ticket worth $196.30.

The Stronach 5 featured races from Gulfstream Park, Santa Anita Park and Laurel Park as well as an industry-low 12-percent takeout and two stakes races.

The sequence started with Laurel's eighth race and Belle Tapisserie ($7) winning off the claim for trainer Kieron Magee. The $2.50-1 Belle Tapisserie turned out to be the largest-priced winner of the day.

The $75,000 Janus, run as Gulfstream's ninth race and the second leg of the sequence, was won by 4-5 favorite Imprimis ($3.60), coming off a horrible trip in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint (G1) in which he was stopped and steadied down the stretch.

The third leg of the sequence was Laurel's ninth race and 2-5 favorite Lady Fox ($2.80) won as easy as she pleased for the Claudio Gonzalez barn. The fourth leg of the Stronach 5 moved to Santa Anita and its third race. Translate ($3.40), a 4-year-old who had finished second in all three of her previous starts at Belmont Park, broke through and made it to the winner's circle.

The Stronach 5 wrapped up at Gulfstream with the $75,000 Cash Run. Gulf Coast ($6.40), second last out in the Sandpiper at Tampa Bay and a $300,000 yearling, rolled to his second win in three starts.

Friday's races and sequence

Leg One – Laurel Park 8^th Race: Belle Tapisserie $7
Leg Two –Gulfstream Park 9th Race: Imprimis $3.60
Leg Three –Laurel Park 9^th Race: Lady Fox $2.80

The Stronach 5 In the Money podcast, hosted by Jonathan Kinchen and Peter Thomas Fornatale, will be posted by 2 p.m. Thursday at InTheMoneyPodcast.com and will be available on iTunes and other major podcast distributors

The minimum wager on the multi-race, multi-track Stronach 5 is $1. If there are no tickets with five winners, the entire pool will be carried over to the next Friday.

If a change in racing surface is made after the wagering closes, each selection on any ticket will be considered a winning selection. If a betting interest is scratched, that selection will be substituted with the favorite in the win pool when wagering closes.

The Maryland Jockey Club serves as host of the Stronach 5.
