Paradis Powers To Fantasy Stable Lead

Published: September 2, 2019 11:01 am EDT

Leadership in the 2019 TROT Magazine Fantasy Stable has changed hands following the past weekend's stakes action, with Roger Paradis of Gatineau, Que., now atop the standings.

Paradis improved from second through the month of August, and his current earnings of $5,409,832 are due in large part to Bettors Wish ($1.03 million), Captain Crunch ($797,607) and Atlanta ($584,070). Paradis will receive TROT Magazine swag as a reward of his current leadership. Prizes will be given to every leader at the start of each month.

Rounding out the top three of the TROT Magazine Fantasy Stable are William Haney of Waterloo, Ont. ($5.20 million), and Shane Courbier of Grand Rapids, Mich. ($5.18 million).

With all 12 of the 2019 Breeders Crown Championship finals taking place on Oct. 25 and 26 at Woodbine Mohawk Park, the Hambletonian Society and TROT Magazine have teamed up this year to present the sixth annual edition of the TROT Magazine Fantasy Stable contest.

The popular TROT Magazine Fantasy Stable contest, which attracted more than 1,350 contestants in 2019, already had a tie-in to the Breeders Crown with all 12 Crown winners gaining a bonus $200,000 toward their fantasy stable bankroll.

The winner of the 2019 TROT Fantasy Stable will be awarded a spot in the 2020 World Harness Handicapping Championship plus a $500 travel voucher.

The TROT Magazine Fantasy Stable contest is based on total earnings of selected horses and five percent of the earnings of selected trainers and drivers between May 18 and December 31, 2019. For the purposes of the fantasy bankroll, the winners (horses only) of the 2019 Breeders Crown Finals will each receive a $200,000 contest bankroll bonus.
