Down Under Winners with Carter Dalgety

One of Down Unders great pacers just loves the harness racing winners circle. 

Sensational pacer Christen Me N amazingly won his 48th career race start on Tuesday night at Yonkers Raceway in New York. The now 13yo down under pacer saluted the winning judge in a time of 1:54.1 around the half mile (800m) racetrack. His current trainer is Scott Di Domenico who had driver George Brennan in the race bike. The son of Christen Cullen showed early speed from the two hole to find the lead and stay there throughout the journey.

He then kicked clear in the stretch and held off challenges from another down under pacer in Campora A who finished in second place.

This down under pacing superstar made a name for himself when racing in New Zealand and during his trips to Australia to compete in feature stakes races. Being trained by Cran Dalgety and driven by Dexter Dunn. 

Christen Me N has one of the most impressive CVs in Australasian racing history. Including winning the Miracle Mile, Auckland Cup, Hunter Cup, Victoria Cup, NZ Free For All, Easter Cup, Harness Jewels, Chariots Of Fire and many more. Along with being crowned New Zealand Horse of the year and Australasian Grand Circuit Pacer of the year. 

Astonishingly his career stake earnings is currently sitting at over $2.8 million, meaning he is closing on the remarkable feat of $3 million in career prize money.
