Father Patrick Tons The Best in Breeders Crown

The $500,000 Breeders Crown Three-Year-Old Colt Trot was one more mile of evidence that Father Patrick is the leader of this division as he won nearly wire to wire in 1:51.4.

The public turned on Father Patrick and his usual driver Yannick Gingras in this major event in favor of the colt’s stable mate, Nuncio, also trained by Jimmy Takter. It was Nuncio, the favorite, that left quickly, trying to take command early but Father Patrick didn’t let him get on the engine, taking it himself by the first quarter in :27.2.
