After topping the standings for the recently concluded winter meet at Chicago’s Hawthorne Race Course, driver Kyle Wilfong is ready to enjoy some time back home in Indiana. A new home, in fact, only minutes from Harrah’s Hoosier Park.
Wilfong and his fiancée, trainer Nicole Agosti, purchased the house around the start of the new year, then almost immediately shipped a stable to Illinois for the 33-day Hawthorne meet that began Jan. 7.

Agosti was tied for fourth in victories among trainers, with 14.
