42nd Walker Trot Invitational At Hanover Raceway

The 42nd Annual Walker Trot Invitational is this Saturday at Hanover Raceway. It coincides with the always popular Racing Under Saddle.

In a release, Hanover Raceway officials say the retired racing under saddle multi-time winner "Tragically Ship" will be there for photographs.

Officials say the under saddle field should be exciting with three horses making their debut without a race bike. Lexis DJ is making his first under saddle start. Don Wan Veeba makes his first start for Danish rider Kaoline Neilsen. Xtra Perfect and owner/rider Nadine Habke are from Ohio and will make their first start together from post position 4.

The races go this Saturday night.
