EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ - On the final day of the Championship Meet at The Meadowlands on Hambletonian Day, harness racing driver Yannick Gingras won four races to catch Dexter Dunn for the driver s title, defeating the defending United States Harness Writers Association Driver of the Year, 86 wins to 85.
That s about the only time anything went wrong during 2020 for Dunn, who is an overwhelming favorite to win DOTY for a second straight season as 12 of the 13 USHWA chapters have nominated the native New Zealander to take home the award as the sport s top pilot.
