The Track on 2 wrapped its inaugural meet of live harness racing on Sunday (Oct. 28), as nine races thrilled fans that made their way out to the Lacombe, Alberta raceway.
The nine-race program was highlighted by Race 8, which was a handicapped pace that featured a purse of $6,100. After having raced in fourth through the opening half of the contest, Post 3 starter Tolly Ho ($18.00) paced off to a two and a quarter-length victory in 1:55.4 for driver Jamie Gray and trainer Joe Ratchford. The Walter Moroz (of Edmonton, Alberta) and Willie Wychopen (St. Paul, Alberta) owned gelding has now won 10 of his 41 career races and banked over $44,000 in purses.
Dan LeBlonc drove a pair of his trainees to wins during the Sunday card and Mike Hennessy also recorded a pair of driving wins.
Via social media, officials with The Track on 2 stated, “We are so thankful for all of the love and support we have received for our first official season of races! We hope you had an opportunity to come out and enjoy the races with us this year! Thank you!”
Officials also congratulated The Track on 2’s leading driver, David Kelly, for his achievements at the Lacombe raceway.
