Bermudian driver Kiwon Waldron navigated a packed schedule of three qualification races today at Harrah’s Hoosier Park, successfully piloting all three horses to top-four finishes and securing their status for upcoming competitive events.
Qualification races are a crucial step for horses and drivers to prepare for official pari-mutuel races, and Waldron demonstrated consistent performance across both gaits:
Pace Class (Race 1): Waldron kicked off the day in the sulky of Rockin The Jackpot. The pair finished in fourth place, recording a time of 1 minute, 56.4 seconds. Trot Class (Race 3): Driving Swanwayoranother, Waldron once again secured a fourth-place finish, stopping the clock in 2:05.1. Trot Class (Race 5): In his final qualifying drive, Waldron secured his best finish of the session with Tactical Lexi, crossing the line in third place with a time of 2:03.4.
Waldron's consistent top-half placement in all three heats ensures his horses are fit and ready to compete on the demanding US harness racing circuit.
