East Rutherford, NJ - Fast class pacers open the Saturday, May 13
card at The Meadowlands as a field of six will contest the first of eleven
races, an $18,000 conditioned pace.
Dealt A Winner (David Miller) has drawn the rail and been
tabbed a slight 2-1 favorite as the 2015 Cane Pace in track and world record
time makes his five-year-old debut.
Dealt A Winner endured a non-descript 2016, spent chasing Always B
Miki and Wiggle It Jiggleit around the continent. Although his past
performance includes an impressive streak of sub 1:50 miles, it is also
populated with long odds and no chance trips.
With a pair of useful qualifiers under his belt to prepare,
Dealt A Winner finds a friendly spot to embark on the new season
for trainer Mark Silva and owner Jeff Snyder.
The competition in the opener is led by a pair of classy, million
dollar winning veterans in Bettors Edge (Brett Miller) and Doctor Butch
(John Campbell).
The horizontal wager guarantees are in place and you may

program pages for the $50,000 guaranteed Late Pick 4 for the weekend to get
an early start on your selections.
An unfortunate forecast for Saturday's weather has forced
the postponement
of the Spring Beer Fest until June 10.
