There were just 10 horses entered in the eliminations for the 2024 edition of the Moores Mile Breeders Stakes on Saturday, June 8 at Century Downs, but those two $14,000 five-horse elims certainly weren't lacking for action.
You know the feeling when you get into a scorching car with the windows closed on one of Edmonton’s rare sweltering afternoons? That’s Alberta harness trainer Chris Lancaster. Hot. Red-hot. Blistering hot.
On one big, long roll since the second week of the current harness meet at Century Mile, Lancaster has won with 10 of his last 12 starters.
But wait, there’s more.
The two horses the harness trainer sent out that didn’t win lost to stablemates: Probert was upset by barn mate Lady Neigh Neigh in last Sunday’s (Dec. 6) feature, and at the end of last month, Custards Crown finished second to Probert in the $88,320 Don Byrne Memorial.
