Canadian HOF electees

 Return Home
May 22, 2007 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Little Brown Jug winner Bettor’s Delight has been elected into the Canadian Horse Racing Hall of Fame. Also elected was Cathedra, the champion pacing filly and stakes-producing broodmare, and Jack McNiven of Killean Acres.
 

Bettor’s Delight, owned by John Grant of Hornby, Ont., earned more than $2.5 million during his exceptional racing career. He won the Breeders Crown and Governors Cup as a juvenile and was named the U.S. Harness Writers Association and Canada's champion 2-year-old pacing colt, winning the O'Brien and Dan Patch Awards. In 2001 he was even more impressive, winning the Jug, Tattersalls, Simcoe and the New Jersey Classic and earning Horse of the Year honors in Canada with a mark of 1:49.4.

 

Cathedra was a standout freshman pacing filly who developed into a superior broodmare. The daughter of Run The Table won 14 of 16 starts and became the richest 2 year old in Ontario Sire Stakes history. As a broodmare she has produced two millionaires, Cathedra Dot Com and Cabrini Hanover. She also is the dam of Western Shooter and The Preacher Pan. Cathedra was trained and co-owned by Larry Ainsworth.

 

McNiven’s Killean Acres stood three of the leading stallions in the province--Frisco Byrd, Dallas Almahurst and Run The Table, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame last year. (with files from WEG)
