Mcwicked Time made a bold three-wide move at three-quarters, grabbed the lead at the head of the stretch, then held sway to the wire to take the $20,458 featured TrackMaster 77.5 Series Final for pacers on Saturday, June 14 at The Meadowlands.

“He raced well tonight,” said winning driver Joe Bongiorno. “He has a lot of go, but does have some trouble with his gait at times during the mile, but once they get him all ironed out, he definitely has the speed.”

A four-year-old son of Mcwicked-Freetime, Mcwicked Time recorded his eighth career win in 47 tries, good for a bankroll of $103,244. The Rob Harmon trainee stopped the clock in a lifetime-best 1:50.4 and paid $5.60 as the 9-5 favourite after finishing two lengths in front of second-place finisher Lmc Peanuts Watchn (Brett Beckwith). Midnight Nation (Patrick Ryder) took the show spot.

It was bombs away early as 10-1, 70-1 and 19-1 shots lit up the board for the first three races, which served as the catalyst for no winning tickets on the 20-cent Pick-5. What that means for players is a carryover of $22,989 the next time the bet is offered, which is Friday, June 20.

Races one through three were taken by Iammrbrightside N ($22.40 to win), Captain Carter ($143.20), and Yer So Bad ($41), respectively. Order was then restored when Our Corelli N ($5.60) took the fourth and Whammer Jammer ($9.80) the fifth. Those with four correct selections collected $114.96.

There is every reason to believe that a huge pool awaits players Friday. The last – and only time during 2025 – there has been a carryover in the Pick-5, a total of $183,943 of “new money” was poured into the pool on Jan. 25 chasing a carryover of $28,744 for a grand total of $212,687. That night, the Pick-5 saw a sequence where winners' odds were 6-1, 17-1, 3-2, 13-1 and 1-5, with winning tickets being exchanged for $2,787.26. The 20-cent Pick-5 is offered nightly on races one through five.

Jordan Stratton and Brett Beckwith tied for top driver of the night with three winners each. Beckwith has now expanded his Big M driver standings lead to 28 over Jason Bartlett. Beckwith has made a total of 86 winner’s circle visits during 2025. Juan Cano, fresh off his win with Conversano in Friday’s New Jersey Sire Stakes final for three-year-old trotting fillies, topped the trainers with a pair of victories. 

All-source handle on the 14-race card totaled $2,805,257 USD. Racing resumes Friday, June 20 at 6:20 p.m.
