Canada Harness Racing Season Highlights Leading Standardbreds

As the first half of the 2025 harness racing season concludes, Beach Myst leads Canadian Standardbreds in wins with 13 victories, mainly at Western Canada claiming tracks, ranking second in North America. Louprint, a three-year-old colt trained by Ron Burke, tops earnings with $525,000 from just two starts, including a record-setting 1:47.1 North America Cup win, the fastest time ever by a three-year-old in Canada. Other notable performers include Royalty Beer and Wifey Said So, each with 10 wins in Ontario circuits, and Madden Oaks and Brue Hanover who rank high in earnings. Meanwhile, drag racing history was revisited with a nostalgic race between a 1932 Harley-Davidson and a 1919 Ford Model A, highlighting the raw mechanical competition of early motorsport. The rest of the articles focus on unrelated topics like community policing, drug overdose issues, and New Zealand horse racing tips, and are thus omitted from this summary.
