Grove City, Ohio – Gabbys C Note was money in the bank in 2021, hitting the board in six of seven races on the way to being named the Ohio 2-Year-Old Trotting Filly of the Year.
Trained by Chris Beaver and owned by Beaver, his mom Johanna, who is also the breeder, and Steven Zeehandelar, Gabbys C Note won five races and earned $243,150. The daughter of Triumphant Caviar out of Gabby’s Creditcard, Gabbys C Note capped off a four-race winning streak by easily winning the $300,000 Ohio Sires Stakes Final by three lengths.
Aaron Merriman drove Gabbys C Note to victory in the Sire Stakes Finals and says she was a mature two-year-old, “She’s bigger and more talented than other fillies. I knew she was something special when I sat behind her.”
Gabby’s C Note will be honored at the Ohio Harness Horsemen’s Association Annual Awards Banquet January 15, 2022, at the Hilton Columbus-Polaris in Columbus, Ohio. The 2021 Ohio Horse of the Year will be announced at the annual awards banquet.
