I don’t have the strength in my left arm and the horse kind of bolted sideways like it was going to go in the infield and when I went to pull on the left line I would have liked to have a little bit more strength there, so I think I’ve got to do a little bit more exercise before I go back,” said Millar. “But guaranteed I’ll be sitting behind my yearlings in September and jogging them on the farm. That’s what I like to do.” In the meantime, Millar is enjoying watching his racehorses compete and the babies frolic in the fields with their mothers. “After spending that much time staring at hospital walls, it’s so nice to be back at the farm, and be around the horses,” said Millar. “It’s getting busy around here now which is nice.

It’s critical in being able to know with certainty what happened at Yonkers because surely this is not the first time in the history of racing that such an event has occurred. And the track owes it to the public and to their customers to let them know not only what happened but how that is going to be prevented again in the future. Adding to the confusion is not being able to piece together the scope of impact by the tote malfunction. Almost every race replay begins from a few seconds before the start of the race through the end of it. For this race, the replay made available only shows the closing stages of the race. Because of this, you can see the “final” closing odds, but you can’t see the odds of what the horses were at the start of the race, presumably before Communication must be any in-race changes occurred. paramount in Yonkers tote I was able to take screenshots that night of the Pick-3 and Pick-4 will-pays leading up to that race and based on those, malfunction the #4 Hitman Hill was slightly favored in both pools over #7 Branquinho.

All An oddity occurred this past Tuesday (July 6) at Yonkers Raceway we know is that according to the graphics in the homestretch where the night’s fourth race resulted in a no contest. Though Branquinho was 3-5 and Hitman Hill was 3-2.

In a seemingly innocent enough race, Branquinho led the rest of the way easily for the two-length win while Keystone Komodo chased to be second. Hitman Hill backed away from the pocket to finish a well beaten third. What ensued from there was a series of communication breakdowns. Following the completion of the race, graphics showed simply the order of finish for the top four horses for at least 10 min- utes, but without the hint as to an inquiry or what may have been causing the delay in the race to go official. After that, it was announced that the race was a no contest. Showing a race off-time at 8:24 p.m., the track issued a tweet over an hour later at 9:43 p.m. stating “Tonight’s fourth race was declared a no contest due to a tote malfunction in the stop betting that caused wagering to be open during the race.” There’s a lot to unpack in that statement. For starters, it shows irrefutably the potential for wagering to continue even as a live race has begun. Though it seems that there’s been ample anec- dotal evidence through the years to support it, any suggestions of “open windows” (continuing to be able to bet after a race has started) have been typically treated as conspiracy theories. So, what actually happened in the case of Yonkers tote malfunc- tion? No one knows. Was it simply a matter of human error? Was it some form of a technical malfunction? Was it something more nefarious? The public, and particularly those who had wagered on the race and even more-so those who would have cashed otherwise, deserve a more detailed explanation than the tweet.

Whatever the explanation is, and perhaps it’s a very simple one, communication of it is owed to the public.

Meadowlands Pace eliminations

This weekend is highlighted on the racing front with two elim- inations for the Meadowlands Pace. With 14 entrants, there are two eliminations Saturday (July 10) where the top five of seven horses in each $50,000 elimination will come back for next weekend’s final.

FIRST ELIMINATION RACE 6 ONE EIGHT HUNDRED has proven himself to be the real deal and credit to Takter for managing the maturation of this one since last year. After impressively sprinting up the inside two back to beat South Beach Star, his race last week against older conditioned foes was even faster when he established a new life mark of 1:48 flat including a :25.3 kicker at the end. He’s not unbeatable by any means, but he is a deserving elimination favorite. ROCKYROAD HANOVER hasn’t been able to get the best of One Eight Hundred yet this year, but he does come off a race where if not for a ticky-tack disqualification he would have been given due credit for beating Perfect Sting. HEART OF CHEWBACCA gets a big-time driver change to Brennan. Noble was first listed down to drive when entries were first taken and I’m not sure if Brennan replaces him due to that drive in the Messenger elimination, but at any rate a return to early speed may be coming. CHARLIE MAY gave an excellent account of himself when running second to American Courage in his Messenger elimination and final. CHASE H HANOVER loomed for a moment first-over into American Courage; playable longshot. EXPLOIT posted a 1:48.1 mile four back. Picks: One Eight Hundred, Chase H Hanover, Rockyroad Hanover

SECOND ELIMINATION RACE 8 AMERICAN COURAGE passed his Messenger test with flying colors and now gets a shot on the big track. When I spoke to trainer Alexander a couple weeks ago in advance of the Messenger eliminations, not only was he adamant about how good his colt was, but that he was going to open even more eyes once on the mile track. This is his shot! Two-year-old champion PERFECT STING went a 1:48.1 mile two back but then for all intents and purposes was defeated last out at The Meadows off a :55.1 half mile. He’ll be tested here for sure. SOUTHWIND GENRY was charted with interference last out attributed to Rockyroad Hanover, though it’s tough to say if it materially impacted him. He was a dominant winner three back at Philly in a race that included One Eight Hundred; would have to think Yannick will be pushing forward early. ABUCKABETT HANOVER was beaten last out at Yonkers before the break but that was a nightmare trip from post 8 anyway; gets a rematch with #1 on more level footing. Picks: American Courage, Southwind Gendry, Perfect Sting

Zuccarello attended the workshop in 2017 and when it wasn’t planned the following year, he took it upon himself to help organize it in 2019. “I decided as a fan and amateur driver that I wanted to continue this and, hopefully, we’ll be able to do it for many more years,” You make the call said Zuccarello. “This is the second one that I’ve been in charge of coordinating in the past three years.” by Debbie Little The organizers are fortunate enough to have 15 qualifiers on The Meadowlands-sponsored race announcers workshop started in Saturday, but if they end up with more participants than races, the 1990s and even though it’s gone through some changes over all of the names will go into a hat and the lucky ones will get time, two things remain the same: its popularity and Ken Warkentin. to call over the public address system.

The prospect of calling a race at the top track in the sport is exciting to all attendees, many of whom have practiced doing it. “I’ve been around the game since the early ‘70s,” said Robert Jolly. “I used to call the races on my way to Roosevelt and Yonkers.” Casey Moore, who’ll be driving down from central New York, heard about the workshop on The Meadowlands simulcast show. “I’ve always had a passion for sports broadcasting,” said Moore. “Often finding myself muting the races and calling them on the fly, so any opportunity to hone my skills with a living legend, is one I simply cannot pass up.” Robert Pugliese, who lives a few miles from The Meadowlands, decided to attend after reading about it in the Paulick Report. “I have been a fan since I was a teenager,” said Pugliese. “As a kid, I remember watching the Kentucky Derby on Blasenak. “I got a taste of calling a race three years ago on a hot, TV and mimicking Dave Johnson’s “and down the stretch they hot Fourth of July at the Saratoga Harness track.

For horseman Michael Hinkley, calling a race is on his bucket list. “I heard about this workshop through social media after I was “I owned and trained in the 80s and always enjoyed all the race hired as the track announcer at Shenandoah Downs in Virginia,” callers, so I thought it would be fun to see and learn from one said Kearney. “I had filled in for Pete Medhurst at Rosecroft of the best,” said Hinkley.

What’s that expression? $25 and a dream.
