The Meadows Standardbred Owners Association is pleased to announce yet another new partner in its Collegiate Scholarship Program, and update an earlier announcement regarding breedings to Hypnotic Blue Chip.

Longtime horse owner Ted Tomson of Brackenridge, Pennsylvania has donated two breedings to trotting stallion Tom Ridge, on the roster at Nandi Farms in New Freedom, Pennsylvania for a fee of $3,500.

Tom Ridge, a World Champion son of Muscles Yankee, has a mark of 1:50.2 and banked over $886,000 in his racing career.

Earlier, Fran and Melanie Azur donated two breedings to World Champion Hypnotic Blue Chip, who has a mark of 1:47.2 and earnings in excess of $1.7 million.

“Melanie and I are very pleased to be able to help the youth of our friends in harness racing families. The MSOA Scholarship fund is a great cause and we are pleased to offer two breedings to Hypnotic Blue Chip.”

“The Azur and Tomson families have long supported racing here at The Meadows,” said MSOA President Rich Gillock. “We are very happy to have them on board with our scholarship program.”

Hypnotic Blue Chip, a son of Art Major, stands at Azur Farms in Beaver, PA for a fee of $3,500.

The breedings are listed on the website ongait.com. The four-day auctions end this Friday (May 3).
