He won the Sonsam in It’s not too often that a race in early March generates any 1:49.4, easily the fastest time so far this year by a 3-year- excitement.

But tonight’s $20,000 second leg of the William of year, the question is, “but who has he beaten?” Should Buddy Gilmour series at the Meadowlands has actually he add National Seelster to his list of victims tonight his resumé will look that much stronger. created some buzz. “If you want to It features a make the major showdown between races and make all two undefeated the staking horses, either one payments it’s good of whom could be to have a little standing in the competition this winner’s circle time of year,” come Teague said. “A Meadowlands Pace lot of top 3 year The undefeated Wiggle It Jiggleit is a So is National Seelster...and the two or North America olds are not out top prospect meet tonight at the Meadowlands Cup night. there so it’s nice to The main two go up against a top 3 year old and see how he matches up combatants in the field are Wiggle It Jiggleit, a home-bred by Mr. Wiggles, who is undefeated in four career starts, (continued on next page) and National Seelster, who is 3 for 3. The latter is by Bettor’s Delight. So far, Wiggle It Jiggleit has received the most attention among the two and figures to go off as the favorite tonight. One of the reasons for that is the tremendous amount of confidence owner George Teague Jr. has shown in the gelding, saying he is as good as any horse he has ever trained. Teague has trained two Pacers of the Year in Rainbow Blue and Total Truth. Teague is listed as the owner only as his assistant Clyde Francis is down as the trainer. Teague has said he has done so because Francis deserves to get some attention after so many years playing a vital role in the stable’s success. “It’s hard to put a label when it comes to how good they are,” Teague said. “This horse shows so many qualities. Speed is just one factor of a good horses and he has that. The other part that is important to me is that he has a great set of lungs. He just doesn’t get tired. He’s also a very intelligent horse, so he can rate, go first over or go on the front end. He’s got all the tools to get to the next stage where we’re racing in important races in May, June, July, August. I think he will be a factor in those races.” Wiggle It Jiggleit raced just once as a 2-year-old, winning a non-winners of two pari-mutuel race at Pocono Downs. Teague said because he did not have him staked to any Grand Circuit races he figured the best plan of attack was to take a step back and point for the 3-year-old year.

You don't have to be Matlock to deduce that harness racing - and horse racing in general - is harvesting its revenue. It's been that way for a long time. However, the harvesting strategy for harness racing has not been a success story, because a key to the strategy is reinvesting what you harvest into new products. Harness racing only has one product. Ohio Can Lead By Switching from Harvesting to In states like Pennsylvania, New York and in the past, Long Term Growth Ontario, we see just how dangerous the strategy is for both the demand and the supply side.

During the USHWA Dan Patch Awards, held at the Rosen Shingle Creek resort in Orlando, Fla., over the weekend, super trotting mare Hannelore Hanover capped a storybook racing season with being named Aged Trotting Mare, Trotting Horse and Horse of the Year. This on the heels of winning Canada’s O’Brien Awards as Older Trotting Mare and Horse of the Year earlier in February. “Every time she went to the gate this year, she had her flubs and she had her this and that, but she did things that you just don’t see many mares do,” says co-owner Mickey Burke Jr. “She beat some really nice male trotters and won some really big races. She came out of the year just as strong as she started it. She’s just an amazing mare, and you don’t get many of these.” Hannelore Hanover was bred by Hanover Shoe Farms. She is a daughter of Swan For All, who stands at Victory Hill Farm in Northeastern Indiana, and out of High Sobriety. In 2017, the mare won 10 out of 17 races, earning $1.04 million. On top of winning the Breeders Crown Open Trot over the mares, she trotted the fastest mile ever by a female during the Allerage Farms Open Trot, finishing in 1:49.2.

These are just a couple of the activities that hundreds of children and adults had the opportunity to do daily at the 2015 Ohio State Fair. For the first time, the Ohio Harness Horsemen’s Association had a booth at the fair in the Land and Living exhibit located in the Nationwide Donahey Ag & Hort Building. This building’s mission is to teach the public about agriculture and all exhibitors housed in the building had to gear their booths towards kid centric activities. It was a kid filled environment full of fun for the entire fair. What a great opportunity for the harness horse industry to be a part of this exhibit and to be able to share the sport, particularly with this year’s record shattering attendance of 982,305 fairgoers. The exhibit’s activities included a chance to play horseshoes, make a horse craft (pup- pets, stick horses, paper horseshoes and helmets) and meet a young filly named Bubbles.
