This year's Goodtimes and Dream Of Glory Final winner Hemi Seelster has been sold and will make his first start for his U.S. connections this week.

The three-year-old son of Holiday Road - Hollywood Beauty was a $19,000 yearling purchase by trainer John Bax. After a solid sophomore season with success in both the Ontario Sires Stakes and Grand Circuit, Hemi Seelster was purchased by Ohio's Carl Atley and Richard Lombardo along with Robert Leblanc of New York. He'll make his debut for his new connections on Wednesday at Dover Downs for trainer Josh Green and driver Ross Wolfenden.

Hemi Seelster's biggest win came in the 2015 Goodtimes Final on North America Cup day at Mohawk Racetrack. He was winless on the season going into the race but made up for it by partnering with driver Steve Byron for the 76-1 upset.

Hemi Seelster leaves Ontario with a mark of 1:54s, eight lifetime wins and more than $303,000 in career purse earnings.
