Standardbred Canada is pleased to announce that Ken Middleton and Dawn Lupul will co-host the
2009 O’Brien Awards.
Middleton is Woodbine Entertainment’s standardbred announcer and has been a regular anchor at the O’Brien Awards. This will be the seventh consecutive year that he will co-host this event.
Lupul began working at Northlands Park as the on-air handicapper for both breeds in 1995. She later became the network show host for both breeds, and played the host and analyst roles for Horse Racing Alberta.
After relocating to Rockwood, Ontario in 2008, Lupul has worked with the WEG and HPI broadcasting teams. She’s been involved with harness racing almost her entire life and was introduced to the sport by her father. She has also owned and trained horses for many years.
The 2009 O’Brien Awards will be held on Saturday, January 30, 2010 at the Delta Meadowvale Hotel in Mississauga, Ontario.
