While Fear The Dragon was impressive in his 2017 North America Cup victory on Saturday night at Mohawk Racetrack, the winner of the I Love Canadian Harness Racing Fan Club's North America Cup online handicapping contest was just as dominant.

Pepsi North America Cup night was jam-packed with stakes action, country music, food specials, prize giveaways and contests for fans to enjoy! The Fan Club offered an online handicapping contest for members on NA Cup night as well as an on-track Pick The Winner contest at the Fan Club booth.

Congratulations to Wayne Hubbard of Saint John, New Brunswick for winning the North America Cup Online Handicapping Contest with a perfect score (20/20)! He was the only person from over 450 entries to handicap all races correctly. Hubbard watched the million-dollar race via simulcast at Exhibition Park Raceway and said “It was the best North America Cup I have ever watched.”

Wayne has been involved with harness racing for over 40 years. He started as a kid mucking stalls and is now known by many in the industry as a trainer/driver at Exhibition Park Raceway. Hubbard is also involved with breeding and currently owns broodmare Julie Gilmore.

For winning Wayne will receive a $50 gift certificate to the Canadian Harness Racetrack of his choice along with a Fan Club prize package.
