The harness race held at the Yonkers International race at Yonkers Raceway on Saturday October 15, had a purse of one million dollars! Resolve’s win in New York pushed his lifetime earnings to over $2 million. Driven by Ake Svanstedt and now owned by Hans Eggren, Resolve set the new pace record for the 1 ¼ mile distance finishing in 2 min- utes and 23.4 seconds. An Italian bred horse, Oasis-B, was runner-up while anoth- er Ontario horse, Flanagan Memory ridden by Brian Sears, was third. Swedish horses were fourth and fifth. Prior to competing in New York, Resolve won the Maple Leaf Trot at Mohawk raceway on September 17. Wilsontario Farm owned by Ted Wilson and his wife Kipp, both retired teach- ers from Port Perry High School, have been involved in breading and raising trotters at their Seagrave farm for over 40 years. Ted and Kipp bought the former Robert Munro 1860’s stone farmhouse on 63 acres in 1974 and have been pro- ducing winning racehorses ever since. The Wilsons and their business partner Mike Pozefsky of Saratoga Springs New York, sold Resolve to Eggren as a 3 year-old in 2014. Eggren worked for the Swedish Government when he came to the United States in 1957. The 87 year-old Eggren now lives in Abbottstown, Pennsylvania.
