so far we have seen Googoogaagaa do a 53.3 mile on the 5/8ths and the Simpson is this weekend
most of the top Hambletoian intended trotters dont race until the NJSS races or NYSS in late May , early June--so here ont he east coast there arent nay 3yo trot events available--unless you wanna face older just to get races in
i said nothing disparaging about the times--just about where he is racing--i am well aware that midwestern connections like the Ackermans usually have a Hambletonian prospect almost yearly
but if you are this good--you dont start racing in March or April
he's had a total of 5 lifetime races. he's won 2 12k purses in a breeze. in 2 weeks he's got a 40k final for ill breds in which he'll go off at 2/5. if he wins that he will have almost 40k on his card with great learning and seasoning. he's being taught to race the right way. as i said, a little break then the bigger stakes in ill, then IF AND ONLY IF he stays together and cotinues to improve, the hambo is a very real possibility
