One
of the Burke/Gingras winners came in the sixth race, the featured A-1 pace,
providing a preview of some of the horses that will be competing in The
Presidential series. But in the end, it was a three year old beating the
older horses as Hillbilly Hanover went all the way on the lead to a 1:52.1
triumph.
Trainer
Nick Surick had a good night as well, earning two victories on the card with
Mystic Desire and Esprit De Kayjay A. Both horses were guided to victory
by Andy Miller.
The
Meadowlands continued its momentum at the betting windows. Despite a
nasty winter storm in the northeast, the bettors still wagered $2,898,623 on the Saturday program.
Racing

7:15 pm. The Friday program will be drawn at 9 am on Monday and the
