Author: by Chris Tully, for First Tracks Cumberland

Power Mitt paid no attention to the tote board as the 8-1 longshot upset Maine’s top trotters to capture the $6,000 feature at Cumberland on Friday.

It has been nine months since he last raced, but Daniel Redén-trained Francesco Zet with Ôrjan Kihlstrom in the bike was ready when he raced at the Rättvik track in Sweden Friday night.

Ontario sired 3-year-old fillies were the headliners on Friday at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

With very good track conditions for the Friday night card, all three MADC races once again were exciting, but also featured a non-betting favorite winning in the end.

Yannick Gingras had the touch Friday night at The Meadowlands, becoming just the third driver during 2024 to win five races on a Big M card.

All Class repeated in the top class at Harrah’s Philadelphia on Sunday afternoon, winning one of two $13,000 divisions of the fast-class pace, while Ervin Hanover shipped in and promptly won the other headlining split.

Warrawee Preferred won the $7,500 Jack Frost Preferred Trot at Cumberland on Saturday (April 13), which was his second win of the week.

After being parked the mile from post eight last week, A Delightful Act N rebounded on Saturday (April 13) in the $18,500 Filly and Mare Open Handicap at MGM Northfield Park.

Sometimes you’re so bad, you’re good. Although a play on words of sorts for Saturday’s MADC race of eight pacers, the betting public’s choice, Yer So Bad, lived up to the hype, with his normal late closing kick.
