Wednesday night’s Yearling Sales Stakes program at Woodbine was highlighted by a stylish winning debut for Ivan Dalos’ homebred Amis Gizmo on an evening showcasing Canadian-breds purchased at previous Canadian Premier Yearling Sales.

Trained by Josie Carroll, Amis Gizmo, a chestnut son of Giant Gizmo-Galloping Ami, arrived at the 6 ½-furlong $200,000 OLG Simcoe Stakes for juvenile graduates of the 2014 CTHS Sale, with high expectations being from the same family as stakes winner Aragorn Ami and the multiple graded stakes-placed Ami’s Flatter.

Off slowly, Amis Gizmo, improving position gradually under Luis Contreras, picked up speed through the turn and engaged the favoured Conquest Twister for a lengthy stretch duel prevailing by a nose. He covered 6 ½-furlongs in 1:16.22.
