Dunn cuts out an elim and jumps it off at the wire.

Announcers think Dunn will get fined for letting a horse up the rail before Dunn made the break.

And did it all on her own from the 7  hole.
Out front and coasting easy !

You are so right!
If Dunn stays at the fence Allegiant never finds room up the rail to get in the final.

always liked this mare..real good at 2, was so so a bit at 3 until having a super back half of the season to take divisional honors.

Would be nice to see her in the BC

is this the first year that US or Canada had no representation... thought Periculum could compete there

Wow! Sure was nice to see a full field and NO TROTTING HOPPLES! SHOEING AND BALANCING is a lost art!

Very good eliminations and final. Glad to see a former US trotter win it. Very impressive 48 mile rate.

Nuncio was the previous US winner 2016. But his performance 2015 was something extraordinary.

Nuncio was very special. Racing and winning the best in US and doing the same as an older horse in Europe. You don't see that very often nowadays and he never looked 100%.
