Celebrity Booked For Breeders Crown
The 2018 Breeders Crown will be filled with 12 exciting races on one spectacular night at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono on Saturday, Oct. 27, and one of harness racing's most vaunted athletes will be on hand for a special pre-race meet-and-greet.
Foiled Again, the richest Standardbred of all time, will make a special appearance to meet and take photos with fans, as well as to raise money for the Harness Horse Youth Foundation and for Standardbred aftercare programs. The event, which begins at 6:00 p.m., is a wristband-only event, with wristbands distributed in limited supply starting at 4:00 p.m. on the apron. The photo is a minimum $5 donation to the above causes, and each donation includes a stuffed toy replica of Foiled Again. The appearance will take place on the track apron nearest the paddock area. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
The connections of Foiled Again will be on hand to meet fans as well, and to celebrate his thrilling victory in the 2013 Breeders Crown at Pocono.
In addition to meeting fans, Foiled Again will lead the post parade for one of the Breeders Crown races.
Post time for the 2018 Breeders Crown is 5:30 p.m. Tickets are on sale for the VIP Tent, and additional seating and dining options will be announced at a future date.
