Sacramento, CA — One of the greats in harness racing will be at Cal-Expo on Friday and Saturday nights.

Bob Farrington, a six-time national driving champion and Hall of Fame member, who perhaps was best known for being the conditioner and trainer of the great pacer Rambling Willie, will be at Cal-Expo this weekend as one of the presenters, along with his wife, Vivian, of the Bob Gordon Pacing Series Final trophy, honoring the late great horseman.

Not only were the Gordons and the Farringtons close, but Gordon would also serve as the west coast trainer for the Hall of Fame pacer, who was owned by Vivian in partnership with the late Paul Siebert.

Both Bob and Viv will be available for the fans to meet on both nights, where they will be happy to autograph pictures.
