From chills to thrills with Blue Hunt

During the winter and spring, the wife-and-husband team of Erica and Alek Chartrand kept quiet about how much they liked their 2-year-old male pacer Blue Hunt. As it turned out, there was no need to talk up the horse. Once he began racing, he made plenty of noise on his own.
Blue Hunt has three wins and a second in six starts this season for the couple and co-owner United Process Control. He will be heading to the New York Sire Stakes championship on Sept. 10 — and if all goes well the Grand Circuit meet at Lexington’s Red Mile and the Breeders Crown could follow — but next ahead is a start Thursday in the third round of the Kindergarten Classic Series at The Meadowlands.
