Blissed Out Notches 50th Career Win
Blissed Out's Saturday night win at Georgian Downs wasn't his richest or fastest, but it marked a special career milestone for the veteran pacer.
With Scott Coulter driving, the 11-year-old Blissfull Hall gelding edged past pacesetter Medoland Glenno in the final strides to score by a neck in 1:55.3 in the 12th race for $6,000 claimers. The victory was his 50th lifetime in a career spanning nine years and 237 starts across North America.
Blissed Out has recorded wins for 11 different trainers, including his current conditioner and owner William Slack of Cobourg, Ont. The Saturday score was his first in 13 starts this year and his winnings pushed his career bankroll to $780,428.
