A Terrible Towel like no other May 24, 2021 at 05:51 AM Copied! All Vanessa Ames wanted to do was find a unique gift for her parents, Susan and Rick Magee. The family full of Steelers fans have just about everything black and gold, and just simply finding anything out of the ordinary for them has always been a challenge for Ames. So, when she saw the Rock Steelers Style auction on steelers.com last fall, she knew she hit the jackpot. There was an auction item like no other – an opportunity to bid on designing a Terrible Towel that the team would then p...

The featured event on the Tuesday (May 18) program at Running Aces was the $11,000 Open handicap pace, with Frewil Dakota Sven emerging victorious in 1:54.2. The public honed Numbered Account as the 2-5 wagering favourite, as the five-year-old Roddys Bags Again gelding was making his Running Aces debut with impressive lines from Dover Downs. The heavy choice got away from the gate last in the field of six, while Solongo went to the lead from post 4 before yielding the front to stablemate Frewil Dakota Sven near the :56.3 half mile. Once on the lead, the six-year-old son of Up Front Brad appea...

After a year away from the races, Burning Blaze — the 2018 Harness Horse of the Year in Minnesota — will make his first start at Running Aces since his sophomore campaign on Tuesday (May 18). The now five-year-old son of Wind Me Up was sidelined from the races in 2020, after completing stellar campaigns at ages two and three. The very sharp and easily identifiable gelding started his 2021 comeback campaign with two races at the Cannon Falls fair earlier this month, picking up a win and a solid second-place finish. Justin Anfinson trains the star pacer for owners Alan and Cheryl Sandbulte...

Mandeville, the talented nine-year-old trotting son of Majestic Son, delivered as favourite in the featured event on opening night at Running Aces in front of a very large and enthusiastic crowd. Driver Nick Roland floated the winner into the pocket from post 3 in the six-horse affair. He enjoyed the garden trip behind leader Pridecrest through fractions of :28.3, :58.1 and 1:26.4 before shaking free and surging past in the shadow of the finish wire, getting home three-quarter lengths ahead of Pridecrest in 1:55.1, with All American N picking up third money off of a wide trip throughout. Bord...

Against all odds, star trotter Bordogna makes his Running Aces return in the feature race on opening night May 16 (Sunday). The five-year-old Trixton stallion will take on five rivals in the $11,000 Open Handicap Trot, which anchors the opening night card in race six on the program. It is a much-anticipated return for Bordogna, as he will be making his first Aces appearance since a late-season injury last year that left him blind in one eye, and sidelined him from the races. Bordogna won seven of 10 races last year, set a Running Aces track record, and a Wisconsin state record, while earning ...
