The latest installment from my weekly Guelph Mercury column…
Harness racing’s mega-rich summer stakes schedule kicks off this weekend with a local colt carrying the hopes of nine first-time horse owners.
Grin For Money, a three-year-old pacing colt trained by John Kopas of Milton, has drawn the three-hole for Saturday’s $472,500 Upper Canada Cup at Georgian Downs near Barrie, Ont.
The colt is owned by the Grin For Money Stable, which was cobbled together by the Standardbred Breeders of Ontario Association. Since 2005, the SBOA has introduced 72 first-time standardbred owners to the sport through its New Owners program.

The SBOA should be congratulated on their mentoring program initiative. It is all about raising awareness of harness racing and it has certainly worked!
