Peck's got another top trotter

We had a great time at the autograph session this morning at the Meadowlands. A special thanks to all the drivers who made it happen--I'm sure that line of racing fans around the corner certainly enjoyed it!

Just watched Holiday Road look strong in winning the Peter Haughton final in a stakes-record 1:54, beating the stakes record shared by Donato Hanover (2007) and Muscle Hill (2008). Greg Peck trains the son of Yankee Glide-Jambo, and it's high time to start comparing him with Muscle Hill. Look out, because Peck might be right back here next year with another Hambo favorite. The pedigree is there--Holiday Road is a full brother to Ken Warketin, who was a 2-year-old champion in 2004.

We're on the fifth race now. The Hambo is right around the corner. Good luck and good racing to all the connections!
