With the Borgata and Matchmaker legs and finals in the books, the Grand Circuit is off and racing in 2025.
There have been two venues outside of Yonkers Raceway contesting races with the Paul Revere at Plainridge Park and the Dexter Cup and Lady Suffolk at The Meadowlands last weekend.
The early call has Jason Bartlett way out in front in the driving colony followed by Jordan Stratton, Yannick Gingras, Matt Kakaley, and Scott Zeron in that order.
Trainers are led by Per Engblom. Following are Peter Tritton, Brett Pelling, Cory Stratton, and 2024 winner, Ron Burke.
The next Grand Circuit event, “Battle of Bunker Hill”, an open 3-year-old trot will be at Plainridge Park Thursday (May 15) followed by the annual “A J Cutler Memorial” Open Trot at The Meadowlands on Saturday (May 17).
