Trio To Be Honoured Tuesday

Published: June 10, 2013 02:41 pm EDT

On Tuesday, June 11, horseman John Stark Jr. and the filly Tye Dye will be inducted into the Saratoga Harness Hall of Fame.

The event will also see Cheryl McGivern accept the Virginia O’Brien Memorial 110 Percent Award.

Stark is most well known in connection with the great pacing mare Bunny Lake, while Tye Dye made her name well known by winning 63 pari-mutuel dashes over the course of her career.

Stark made mention of Bunny Lake in a report by The Saratogian, stating that “She was one you dream of having,” adding that the mare never had a bad day.

"It was just amazing. No matter what we’d do, she’d come back the next day ready to race.”
