Amateur drivers Jafari Frazier, Tony Dinges and Dein Spriggs joined Ted Nicholson, Vice-President of Racing for The Mint Gaming Properties, for the presentation as the club now has well surpassed the $300,000 plateau in its donations encompassing beneficiaries involved in aftercare for retired horses and new careers for Standardbreds as therapeutic horse and show horses, to name a few.

Spriggs, the USHDC President, said, “This grand museum in Goshen, N.Y., the cradle of harness racing, is an absolutely incredible museum tracing our sport back to its beginning back over two centuries. It’s imperative that they have the financial resources to properly showcase our grand sport and our club is honored to participate in keeping it alive and well.”
