Harness racing driver Lemoyne ‘Mooney’ Svendsen earned his 4,000th career victory on Sunday, June 4 at Running Aces. The big milestone was achieved in race 10 when he delivered a big performance with the race favourite, Dance Traveler ($5.40), for a new career mark in 1:53.1.
When he ended up on the right end of a nose photo last week with trainer Jesse Pacheco in the sulky, Im An Athlete was winning for the 56th time in his 286 starts and continues to work toward the $300,000 earnings plateau for owner Ronald Rettig-Zucchi.
