Eddie Miller wins GLADA trot with Cowboy Country at Northfield

Northfield, OH — Sent off as second choice in the $8,000 Great Lakes Amateur Drivers Association trot Sunday night (June 19) at Northfield Park, Eddie Miller sent Cowboy Country for the lead.

They gained command after a :28.1 first quarter. Once on top they had to contend with Hititoutofthepark (Allen Sisco) who moved first-up and the two raced side by side past the half in :58. They were still side by side when they headed for the three-quarters, but at that point Sisco’s trotter was tiring and that made room for the 3-5 favorite, Next Woman Up (Lauren Harmon). However, they had to reel-in Cowboy Country, and they tried, but to no avail.

When they headed for home Miller’s charge was still strong and although Harmon’s trotter took its best shot, the leader didn’t yield. At the wire, Cowboy Country hung tough and zipped home a three-quarter length winner in 1:57.2. Next Woman Up was second and in third place was Fulton’s Fury (Darrell Rideout).

Cowboy Country is owned by Rebecca Sugg and Steven Maas and is trained by his driver. He paid $5.00 for win.
