Original Toronto Star caption: Thoroughbred racing resumes at Greenwood in five weeks. But because the standardbreds are holding court at the east-end plant; the runners are being worked out at Woodbine. Already; some 1;000 horses are stabled at Woodbine; including about 250 that spent the entire winter. Every day more vans roll in; sure signs that spring can't be far away.
