BIG BANG BANG EARNS LIFETIME MARK IN MEADOWS FEATURE UPSET

WASHINGTON, PA, March 2, 2022 — Exploiting torrid fractions, Big Bang Bang pounced on the leaders first over and pulled off the 6-1 upset in Wednesday’s harness racing feature at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows, a $10,300 Conditioned Pace.

Louie, the 3-5 favorite, was parked well past the quarter and was forced to a swift 55.3 half. That was the signal for trainer/driver Dan Rawlings to move Big Bang Bang from third.

The 4-year-old Believeinbruiser-Shytown Lightning gelding defeated the game Louie by 3/4 lengths in a career-best 1:52.2, with Super Hero Hanover a rallying third.
