This is Arson a 4yo stud by Captain Treacherous out of Western Montana. His mother is in the US HOF, his 3/4 sister won over 2 million and was best female 2. 3 and older mare. He has another 3/4 sister who has won close to a million He will never race again; He shattered his cannon bone, and it was a mess. The track vet wanted to euthanize him, but Anthony MacDonald said not until I talk to my own vet. The surgeon looked at the x-ray and said, I will operate but I don't like his chances. He has 33 screws and two plates, and it took over 5 hours to put his leg back together. The Vet said Humpty Dumpty has nothing on this guy. He is one of the most intelligent horses they have trained and now he has to survive a potential infection and Laminitis. If he avoids in the next few months then he can go to stud. This would make a great stallion over there IMO. He won a bunch of races, some of them against Grand Circuit company. He won the previous week at Northfield Park getting ready for some of the bigger races. He has won over 400,000 US so while there would not be a great market for him here because there are already like 5 Somebeachsomehwere stallions standing here in the top 20 pacing sires. Being an animal lover and a previous owner of 8 or 9, I hope he survives. 95 percent of horses and probably 100 percent of gallopers would be dead from this

Hunter Myers (27) with 2450 wins got thrown from the sulky at The Meadows in a race when the leader (a Pacer) broke stride and caused a chain reaction, he was apparently at the rear of the filed and got thrown from the bike and suffered fatal head injuries. I don't have the video because while it's available I did not want to watch it. His wife posted the video of being wheeled to the OR to harvest his organs. Check out all the trainers and drivers that line the hallway. I have never seen anything like it. It shows what a great guy he was. https://www.facebook.com/reel/957827029800927

Ok, Thanks I found my good friend and roomy dead on the floor of his room this morning. He was at the doctor's and his BP was great on Friday, but he had a bad heart. I put the cat in his room, and he was watching TV at midnight last night. This morning the cats were screaming to get out and my cats was bugging me for food which he never does. I went into the room and found him wedged between his chair and the computer table. I never heard him fall and he weighed 140KG so I cannot fathom why I did not hear anything. He has Alexa from Amazon which you can talk from one room to another, but he must have been unconscious. Very upsetting. I guess the cup in on tomorrow, right? Good luck

He would revolutionize the breed down there. There were 3 horses sold for a million at Harrisburg, PA A Walner Colt 3/4 brother to the best 2yo named Maryland who won over a million. Maryland won a race at The Meadowlands and paid 138 bones to win and 335 bones to place. This was for a 2 dollar bet. He then went on and Won the Mohawk Millions in Canada, the Peter Haughton in USA and the breeder's crown. He is by Chapter Seven who is the father of Walner. Dex drove Maryland The second horse sold for a million was Hot Mess Hanover who is the mother of Jiggy Jog which Dexter drove. She won over 3 million and beat the European trotters that came over here over a mile and a quarter. She injured herself in her last win and was 6 for 6 this year. Dex said she is the best horse he has driven. Hot Mess Hanover is in foal to Walner and sold for 1 mil Then finally Amazing Catch which Dexter drove for Ake Svanstedt and won 800,000 so far sold for 1.85 million today and is staying with his trainer, He will be one of the few 3-year-olds who is not going to stud and will race as a 4 yo. I know What the Hill is doing well down there, but Walner would inject a lot of speed into the breed down there. The problem is he stands for $50,000 up here. I don't know what his record is now but 75 percent of his foals raced as 2yo that year which is insane. Good luck to you guys that will be betting on the NZ Cup. I cannot believe it's been 40 years since my horse won the Dominion Hcp there.

There are a few tracks here in the US that have closed or are closing. They have a big attendance problem here as well. One big problem is that they retired the colts to stud at the end of their 3yo campaign. Noel Daley said Sig Sauer, who won the 3yo tret last night, is going to Hanover Shoe Farm, and that was his last race. He has a knee that bothers him and apparently is or was a real handful. Noel called him a terrorist at home, LOL Many of the tracks here are supported by Casino's who own the tracks and they have to subsidize the tracks. Some races go off with like 20 thousand bet on the race or even less Racing needs to somehow attract young people like you mentioned.

He won 2 on Friday Night He made over $100,000 with his 5 percent plus he owns part of the HOY. I am shocked more Kiwi's and Aussies don't come over here and drive.

Make it SIX Twin B Joe fresh will be Horse of the year here. Great that Dex owns a piece of her.

Karl finishes a disappointing 5th. Not the same horse. Still, he has a record of 21 starts 18 wins 2 2nds and a 3rd for 2,019 million Sig Sauer beat Karl for the 2nd time. The last time he was 65 to 1 and been paid $185.00 for 2nd place on a $2.00 bet, way more than he paid to win Can you guys ever imagine the 1st half mile being TROTTED in 52 4/5th (54.8). Trotters are getting faster and faster over here. They also command way more than the pacers at the yearling sales. https://harnesslink.com/usa/sig-sauer-superb-in-132nd-kentucky-futurity/

Drove 3 winners and 4 seconds in Lexington Kentucky, all but one was a stakes race Then went to Dayton Ohio and won the four feature races, each worth $250,000 Jiggy Jog is now up to 3.1 million in earnings, and she is only 5. She has and will throttle the boys. Another great Walner offspring Twin B Joe Fresh which he part owns with Chris Ryder is probably the best older horse and she went a track record of 1:48 and change Logan Park shipped down from Canada, and he won that for top male trotters And finally, he won the main race for older pacers with Abuckabett Hanover (By Betting Line son of Bettor's) He drives to perfection; U never see him whipping a horse and it is amazing to watch as you guys there saw.

https://www.harnessracingupdate.com/pdf/hru/hru090124.pdf Go to page 8 Happy 35th Birthday Dexter Dunn by Bob Heyden Dexter Dunn turns 35 today (Sept. 1). The 10-time New Zealand and four-time Dan Patch Driver of the Year has earned the respect and admiration of many throughout the business. Here’s a look at what some industry insiders had to say about him..........

Here's The Hambletonian, which has different views and shows Yannick Gingras's emotions as he wins. It took him 9007 wins to win this race for the 1st time. Karl all going well will smash the WR when he goes to Kentucky in October as long as the weather is not effed up like it was in this race. What a great run from Highland Kismet who I think had less than 10 lifetime starts and did not race at two as he was a handful and refused to trot and do what they asked him to do. He's a Father Patrick so I can see why he was difficult. Most of them get gelded because they are wound up like an alarm clock. He's going to get better and better.

Not sure, I will check it out. Tactical Landing was a can't miss. His full sister (Mission Brief) trotted 1:50 3/5ths as a 2yo. Nothing has come close and she did it like 10 years ago. She was built like a thoroughbred and her brother built like a tank. They are tough as their mother was by Varenne. You can't beat that European blood

Legendary Hanover just ran 1:46.2 in his race. The horse is best 3yo in North America. 52 and change 1st half.

Above is the live feed. It's 9:15 am here in Las Vegas so 12:15 there in New Jersey Scattered thunderstorms are due there all day, which is not the greatest. The Hambletonian should be great. If Karl is back to his best, he will be very hard to beat and won in a jog in his Elim. TCI as a 2yo was the richest earner ever with over 1.2 million last year and Karl left him in the dust in the Breeders Crown. Then you have The Canadian horse, Highland Kismet who could be a serious threat. He has been a little weird at the start behind the gate. He doesn't trot rough but hangs off the gate. They are supposed to have that fixed. He and Sig Sauer are two very big dangers. Sig Sauer went off at 68 to 1 against Karl and flew home to win 2 weeks ago in a $135,000 race. Noel Daley trains him (ex-Aussie and a damned good trainer) If the weather is somehow dry, they may well go 1:49 which would be a WR for a 3yo trotter.
