"Bolt The Duer" sets the World Record Time in Harness Racing!!!

BOLT THE DUER WINS ADIOS IN WORLD-RECORD 1:47.4

WASHINGTON, PA, July 28, 2012—In three recent important races, Bolt The Duer left from the rail and had the lead late, only to be nailed at the wire. In Saturday's $500,000 final of the Delvin Miller Adios at The Meadows Racetrack & Casino, Bolt The Duer and driver Mark McDonald left from the rail once more, but this time, with a different strategy.

They powered to the two hole, sat behind an amazing, unprecedented three-quarters in 1:19.2 thrown down by A Rocknroll Dance, brushed through the lane and won the 46th "Pace for the Orchids" in 1:47.4, fastest mile ever on a five-eighths-mile track regardless of age.
