YONKERS, NY, Wednesday, February 21,
2018—The Foiled Again saga continues Thursday night (Feb. 22nd),
with the venue (Yonkers Raceway) and the quest (100 career wins) remaining the
same.
It’s the fourth crack at the milestone for
harness racing’s richest-ever equine ($7,570,878) in his 308th
career purse start. Foiled Again drew post position No. 3 in the $20,000,
eighth-race pace. First post is 6:50 PM, with approximate post for the eighth
at 9:30 PM
George Brennan drives for co-owner (as
Burke Racing)/trainer Ron Burke. The 14-year-old Dragon Again gelding won (with
Brennan) his seasonal debut, moving him to the precipice of the plateau. He hit
the board once (a third-place finish) in three subsequent starts.
Foiled Again has raced at the same
(non-winners of $20,000 in last five starts) in every start this season.
