Fresh off being named Driver of the Year earlier this week by the U.S. Harness Writers Association, Jason Bartlett will aim to add two more big wins to his list of accomplishments when he gets behind Sir Pinocchio and Coaches Corner in their respective $250,000 MGM Grand Prix Series finals on Friday afternoon at MGM Yonkers Raceway.

Bartlett, who was named Driver of the Year for the first time in his career, leads all drivers in North America in purses, with $16.4 million, and is No. 2 in victories, with 798. He is only the second driver ever to win more than $15 million in purses and more than 700 races in the same season, joining Tim Tetrick (who has done it five times).
