2018 Harness Racing - Foiled Again wins in Canadian farewell

From Harnesslink.com: MILTON, December 22, 2018 - The legendary Foiled Again delivered a final memorable moment for Canadian harness racing fans with an impressive victory in the penultimate start of his career Saturday at Woodbine Mohawk Park.

The richest Standardbred of all-time came first-up from third at three-quarters to challenge leader Alexas Jackpot and stormed by in the lane to win by 2¼ lengths in 1:53.2 for driver Louis Philippe Roy and trainer Ron Burke.

A large crowd turned out despite freezing temperatures to take a photo with Foiled Again during a pre-race meet and greet session. Fans rushed out to the apron and made plenty of noise cheering Foiled Again home and in the winner's circle.

A winner of $7.6 million, Foiled Again now has 109 victories over the course of 13 seasons on the racetrack. The 14-year-old gelding has added $76,540 to his career earnings in his final season for owners Burke Racing Stable LLC, Weaver Bruscemi LLC and Jjk Stables LLC. http://www.harnesslink.com/News/Foiled-Again-wins-in-Canadian-farewell



He'll make his final start New Years Eve at the Meadows. This horse brings tears to my eyes. #FoiledAgainForever
