Chris Ryder and Mark Purdon own the winner. This track is as slow as you can get. I'm surprised it went 1:57.

The FFA pacers went the same time but came home in 59.3/10ths. The trotter in the race above came home in 56 seconds on the front and the pacer is visiting from Australia and has won 1.5 million.

Kind of odd to see them on the grass here. Although a lot of meets are still run on the grass but much longer distances
