Maynard Miller planned on giving Indiana-bred female pacer Walkin On Sunshine a chance to compete out east on the Grand Circuit, but first he wanted to provide her the opportunity to mature and ease into the transition from racing against fillies at age 3 to mares at age 4.
After watching Walkin On Sunshine close out her 4-year-old campaign in 2024 by winning seven of her last 10 races — including the Indiana Sire Stakes championship for pacing mares — and open this season with a victory in the Fillies & Mares Invitational at MGM Yonkers Raceway, even Hannibal Smith would likely love the way the plan appears to have come together.
