Canterbury Park will host five stakes races Wednesday, including the $100,000 Mystic Lake Derby, as part of the Canterbury Park Turf Festival at the Shakopee track. All five stakes will be run on the turf.
The Mystic Lake Derby drew seven entries, topped by morning-line favorite Angelus Warrior, an allowance winner in his last start at Churchill Downs. His trainer, Mike Maker, also saddles Temple, the morning-line favorite in the $75,000 Mystic Lake Mile.
Winning Envelope, owned by Robert Lothenbach of Wayzata, heads a field of 11 in the $75,000 Lady Canterbury Stakes. The $50,000 Northbound Pride Oaks and the $50,000 Honor the Hero Stakes also are part of a nine-race card that begins at 4:30 p.m.
