10,000th career victory for Dube

Daniel Dube captured the final race on Friday night (October 17) at MGM Yonkers Raceway with Crown Monarch (Father Patrick) to make him the newest harness racing member of the 10,000 win club for drivers.

A 4-year-old son of Father Patrick, Crown Monarch was able to hold sway on the front-end to prevail in 1:57.3 for trainer Per Engblom and co-owners Engblom Stable LLC. and Tomas Andersson.
