On Monday night at Woodbine Racetrack, a racing rarity took place when a dead-heat for win happened. Even more rare is that both horses are homebreds, and owned by their trainers.


In the evening's sixth race, a conditioned race for Ontario-sired three and four-year-olds, So Bad Im Good (Joe Hudon) tried to cut all the fractions but couldn't hold off the backfield heading into the stretch. Kuchar (Jody Jamieson) and Sanattle Slew (Billy Davis, Jr.) were both poised to pounce on the pacesetter from the outer flow and both powered past, hitting the wire simultaneously.


Kuchar is a three-year-old Badlands Hanover colt trained by his breeder and co-owner, Mark Austin. Austin co-owns with Leo Thibodeau of Windsor, Ont.


Sanattle Slew is a Santanna Blue Chip sophomore gelding, bred owned and trained by Jeff Gillis of Hillsburgh, Ont.


With the win, both pacers notched their second seasonal score.
