The Valedictory Stakes at 1 ½ miles was the feature at Woodbine; what kind of a price could you get on a horse ridden by the leading jockey and sent out by the leading trainer? From Paris to New Jersey in a matter of hours – Doug McNair talks about 2 dramatically different harness racing experiences. Jonathan Drury and Tyler Borth broke through the same plateau this week, and Western Fair Raceway’s Amy O’Toole helps promote the Toys for Tots drive. And how much grief did jockey Paco Lopez heap on himself for hitting a horse in the face – after he had won the race? Jonathan Stettin and Ken McPeek elaborate.
