Here's what happened this week in the Warhorse Horse Race wild card round! 3 daily contenders vying for just one daily spot, but your votes determined winners and here they are, all ready for next week's Battle Royale for the coveted wild card spot!

It's the Battle Royale! 4 great pieces, 1 wildcard spot. Who do you choose? Beethoven 5 youtube.com/watch?v=fnCq7S… Grieg Concerto youtube.com/watch?v=A_nSRo… Vaughan-Williams: The Lark Ascending youtube.com/watch?v=P6zZuD… or Lauridsen: O Magnum Mysterium youtube.com/watch?v=tXTghD… Vote now!

Voting update: as of last night Beethoven out in front, Lark and Lauridsen tied not too far behind!

Shocked and devastated. One of Canada's brightest musical lights. This is a terrible loss.

And here's where things stand so far in the group of 8!: #warhorsehorserace

Very close still in this week's Warhorse Horse Race, but at this point Elgar has a very slight lead! Beethoven's out. Will Mozart follow? Voting closes at midnight, ET.

Very close this week, but results are in, Nimrod rides on to the group of 4 and another giant falls! So - you'll win next week - St. Saens or Vivaldi? It's anyone's guess!

This week's corker in the group of 8! All bets are off on this one. Who do you choose? Vote now! Winter from The Four Seasons youtube.com/watch?v=JtxRvS… or St. Saens' Symphony N. 3 youtube.com/watch?v=M68gT9…
