Mitchell York is not someone who typically races horses this late in the season, especially a 2-year-old, but Thai Hanover will be a rare exception when he goes behind the starting gate in Thursday’s $122,600 Grade 3 Matron Stakes for freshman male pacers at Bally’s Dover.
Thai Hanover, a two-time Grand Circuit winner, will get his opportunity thanks to a consistent campaign that has seen him hit the board in nine of 13 races while facing some of the sport’s top 2-year-old male pacers along the way. That trend will continue Thursday, when he leaves from post one with Jeremy Indof driving for co-owner/trainer York in the Matron. He is 8-1 on the morning line.
