Dominion stays red hot with front end score

Dominion stayed red-hot on a chilly Wednesday afternoon at Saratoga Casino Hotel on Wednesday when the Brielle Roman-trained harness racing four year old won for the fourth time in his last five starts.

Drawing the rail for his try in a $10,000 trotting event, Dominion wound up as the public’s odds-on favorite in a start that saw him go coast-to-coast to prevail for the fourth time in the class with one start up in company in between.

Justin Huckabone piloted Dominion who got away second and was content to sit the pocket to rival Struttin Yankee (Leon Bailey) in the first lap. The big favorite was guided to the outside by Huckabone approaching the three-quarter pole and quickly imposed his will.

Dominion cruised away in the stretch before stopping the timer in 1:58.4 for his fourth victory in 2025.
