Stakes-Filled Summer Awaits Two-Year-Olds at Woodbine Mohawk Park

MILTON, February 12, 2026 – With the February 15 stakes deadline looming, owners and trainers of two-year-olds will want to give a close look to the various stakes opportunities this season at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

New for 2026, the Dream Maker, Whenuwishuponastar, Millard Farms and Pure Ivory have all been switched from a three-week series to elimination/final format. These four summer stakes have annually been a launching pad to bigger stakes success.

The new format and stakes payment schedule is expected to lead to sizable purses for each final ($125,000 to $150,000).
