Headlines: Hambeltonian Hopefuls to Race at Plainridge
















Plainridge Park will host the Grand Circuit once again on Saturday (May 16) when a field of eight will line up behind the gate for the G3 $100,000 Battle of Bunker Hill Trot. Half of that field comprises four colts with aspirations of starting in the G1 $1 million Hambletonian on August 8 at The Meadowlands, and the connections of them all hope early success here can propel them toward that goal.
