| Miss New Jersey, Lindsey Petrosh |
This year the honors
will go to Lindsey Petrosh, a 23-year-old Rowan University graduate student
from Egg Harbor City. She will present the trophy on Saturday, August 4,
2012 at the Meadowlands Racetrack.
It was through the efforts of Hall of Fame
trainer Anthony Abbatiello and longtime breeder Thomas D’Altrui Sr. that the
Standardbred Breeders & Owners Association of New Jersey – the SBOANJ --
was founded in 1961. The SBOANJ is the sponsor of both stakes.
A vocalist, Lindsey Petrosh performed the “Battle
Hymn of the Republic” for the talent portion of this year’s Miss New Jersey
pageant on June 16.
In January, she will compete for the title
of Miss America.
