On Saturday, July 14th in the 3rd race at scenic Hastings Racecourse, the BC bred G M T Baby went wire to wire in a 6 furlong, Maiden Special Weight for two-year-old fillies. G M T Baby jumped right out of the gate and was never headed as jockey Enrique Gonzalez guided her home 3 1/4 lengths clear of her nearest rival. The filly is trained by Phil Hall, owned by Dennis Tucker was bred by in Langley, BC by Maureen Goss. Both the owner and breeder are now pleased recipients of $5,000 bonuses for G M T Baby's win. Owner Dennis Tucker purchased the filly for a mere $5,000 from the 2017 BC CTHS Yearling and Mixed Sale just last September. That money was fully recovered with the bonus he received. She is the second Shrug juvenile to win at this level. G M T Baby is out of the Forestry mare, Greenwich, who is also the dam of stakes winner Lord Vancouver. Punters likely missed that fact, as she paid $24.40 for a $2 win ticket.
