NYSS to be contested at Buffalo on Wednesday
At 1h19, on May 17, 2022 • By BUFFALO
There are six entrants set to compete in the 3-year-old colt and gelding trot in the New York Sire Stakes at Buffalo Raceway on Wednesday afternoon (May 18) but two things are for certain — they bring plenty of talent and a huge payday awaits them at the finish line.
A pair of finalists from last year’s $200,000 New York Sire Stakes finals for the freshman colt and gelding trotters will shuffle off to Buffalo Raceway for Wednesday’s battle while the champion of the $50,000 Excelsior A series will also take part in the festivities. The race is scheduled for the fifth on the 10-race program with a purse of $115,600.
Quincy Market and Chapheart were both participants in the NYSS 2021 Night Of Champions at Yonkers. While finishing out of the money, they begin their summertime grind throughout New York State in hopes of landing another berth in the final.
Debs Prince Hall captured the crown in the $50,000 Excelsior A final last season, winning by a neck in 1:59.2 at Vernon Downs and arrives sharp and ready to roll.
The remainder of the field includes Valentine Express (John MacDonald), Castle House (Kasper Foget) and Velvet Style (Mark MacDonald).
Post time for the program is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.
