Billings makes stop at Hoosier

Hoosier Park Racing & Casino will host one division of the CKG Billings Amateur Driving Series Sunday, May 16. A field of seven trotters will line up behind the starting gate for the one-mile contest and a purse of $2,500.

S A Eldorado comes into the race with the quickest win time of 2010. The six-year-old son of Striking Sahbra earned his career best earlier this year at Windsor Raceway. Dale Zahn of Holland, Mich. owns S A Eldorado and will drive from the outside post seven.

Another contender in Billings action is Abs Super Hall and Kelly Walker of Davison, Mich. The seven-year-old trotting mare has been competing at Hoosier Park, failing to miss a check in six starts. The daughter of Super Catch earned a win earlier this year in 2:01 at London in Canada. The duo starts from post one.

The entire field for the Billings Amateur Trot, in post position order with driver, includes Abs Super Hall (Kelly Walker), American Flyer (David Ehrenberg II), DW’s Perky Joe (Jim Pollock Jr.), Celtic Merchant (Steve Oldford), Fox Valley Amber (Mike Mitchell), Main Street Hall (Tom Williams), and S A Eldorado (Dale Zahn). Post time for the non-wagering event is 12:40 p.m. Post time for the first pari-mutuel race is 1 p.m.
