Joshua Tree looks for winning edge in International

TORONTO, October 6 - Joshua Tree, trained by Marco Botti, is back for a third consecutive appearance in the Grade 1, $1.5 million Pattison Canadian International, set for Sunday, October 14 at Woodbine.

The son of champion Montjeu won the 2010 edition by a head over Mores Wells, when trained by Aidan O’Brien. Last year, as an 11-1 shot, he finished second to an even bigger longshot, 22-1 runaway winner Sarah Lynx, while under Botti’s care.
