For the second time in the last three years, the six-year-old No Spin Zone stallion won the honour courtesy of the Delaware Valley Chapter of the United States Harness Writer's Association. Slick Tony had seven wins at the Harrington meet and banked more than $75,000. Slick Tony, who has earned more than $861,000 in his career, dominated the Delaware Standardbred Breeders Fund (DSBF) events at two and three and continues to compete at a high level in the Mid-Atlantic region. Slick Tony is trained by his owner in Sudlersville, Mary.
