Seven horses were entered for the Dexter Cup, the first Grand Circuit event of the season for three-year-old male trotters, making eliminations unnecessary this Saturday at Freehold Raceway. All seven horses advance directly to the Dexter Cup final, which will go for a purse of $137,775, on May 6 at the half-mile track in central New Jersey.
Wild Bill Kelso ($6.90) was the fastest of the two $53,500 divisions of the New York Sire Stakes for the two-year-old colt and gelding trotters at Buffalo Raceway on Wednesday afternoon (June 29) while Kennebago ($9.30) was just a step slower in his winning performance.
