But, Indiana didn’t waiver, they adjusted to present just adjusted to present another successful Breeders Crown at Harrah’s Hoosier Park. The event was historical in many ways another successful with some new records, including a dead heat and the largest Breeders Crown payout in the 37-year history of the event.

November 2020 Indiana Standardbred Magazine 5 Shining moment for Indiana’s stars on HOOSIER CHAMPIONS NIGHT By Tammy Knox

Just like everything else scheduled for 2020, the Indiana Sires Stakes was affected by COVID-19 restrictions this season. But the Indiana Standardbred Breed Develop- ment went to work with Harrah’s Hoosier Park to pro- vide a revised schedule for the series to fit into the short- ened racing season, which went from 160 racing days to 111. The Indiana Sires Stakes may have lost a few preliminary rounds but the talent and speed of Indiana’s finest two, three and older pacers and trotters was right on point again in 2020 for Hoosier Champions Night.

6 Indiana Standardbred Magazine November 2020 HOOSIER CHAMPIONS NIGHT RECAP $270,000 2YO FILLY TROT Swift Swanda Swift Swanda and Trace Tetrick used a well-timed move down the stretch to reach the finish line first in the two-year-old trotting filly Super Final. The Swan Swift Swanda (Swan for All – Cheetah Hall – Tom Ridge) for All filly capped off what has been a successful season and her victory in the final gave her a new career best Driver: Trace Tetrick time of 1:55.2. Trainer: Erv Miller The inside post position was not an advantage early on Owner: Anthony Lombardi (Illinois) and The as Swift Swanda got away in mid pack. Queen of All Kales Co. (Michigan) and Robert Taylor moved out quickly from the outside Breeder: Lavon Miller (Indiana) to grab the top spot and the quarter mile marker time Time: 1:55.2 in :27.4 before race favorite Shirley Goodness and Peter Wrenn circled around to lead the way for the rest of the mile.

In the stretch, Swift Swanda had followed cover and was primed and ready for a big final quarter, trot- ting home in :28.0 for the neck win over Country Girl Charm and LeWayne Miller. Shirley Goodness rounded out the top three.

“She’s a pretty immature, green filly,” said Trainer Erv Miller through a Harrah’s Hoosier Park press release. “She’s really growing this year and just like Trace said she will make a great three-year-old. Last week she relaxed a bit more in the turn and went off a bit. In the Kentuckiana she was too far back to get ahead. She’s mainly been babied along because of immaturity.”

The win was the sixth of the season for Swift Swanda, who moved over the $200,000 mark in earnings. She was purchased from the Lavon Miller consignment at the Hoosier Classic Yearling Sale last fall by Anthony Lombardi and The Kales Co. for $80,000.

She was a little on the right line so I went on the inside and it worked out. She is eligible for the Breeders Crown and if she comes out of this sound she will be there. My dad won the Breeders Crown a couple years ago (Verlin Yoder, Woodside Charm) so I’m hoping to follow in his footsteps.”

From there, Yoder had a strong hold on the son of Guccio as the gelding powered through the second half of the race, opening up on the field to score a six and one-half length victory in 1:51.4, trotting home in :27.3. Bridge to Jesse’s, a four-time divisional champ in Indiana, moved up in the second portion of the race to challenge and finish second for John DeLong over Martini Show and Sam Widger for third.

“This horse had the freshest legs going into this race,” said Yoder through a Harrah’s Hoosier Park press release. “He is a class act and I can’t say enough good things about him.”

It was the third straight win for Katkin American and prompted a start in the Breeders Crown Cham- pionship for older trotting horses. However, the start didn’t take place as he was a late scratch due to injury. But it’s been a super year for Katkin American, who has won seven of nine starts with two seconds. He also earned a new career best mark earlier this year in 1:51.2.
