Bob Bencal on Harness Racing Alumni Show

Recently retired, prominent RR, YR & Grand Circuit harness racing trainer Bob Bencal is this week’s entertaining guest on the Harness Racing Alumni Show.  This is a do-not-miss episode as Bob, in his unmistakable NY style, will keep you laughing recounting some of his greatest horses, prominent owners (Bob Bo

ni & Tony Pedone) and what it was like to train for Jeff Gural for almost 50 years.

On a more serious note, listen as Bob touches on why policing this sport’s cheating problem is so difficult.  Fred and Bob also discuss the special relationship he had with the last horse he trained, Genius At Work, and how because of the Standardbred Retirement Foundation’s efforts, Genius is now a NY City Police Horse.
