This horse ran at the Meadowlands in the early to mid 80's in high claiming races ,his name was that of a fictional town in a cartoon , what was his name?

Who was the youngest female driver to win a harness race at the Meadowlands ?

The above are just 2 of many i have , I am an expert on Meadowlands from 1976 to 1985.
I also have the first ever meadowlands harness program and the first thoroughbred program , I have 5 copies of each if anyone is interested please let me know.

Those are tough questions Babbagene. But I remember my first winner ever at the Meadowlands Harness. The horses name was Oscar Minor. I do not remember who drove, but I think it was Catello Manzi. Did he drive there in the early years or was he still at Monticello ?

Never would have had them correct those were tough questions. Would have guessed Storm Damage a very good colt in his own right.

The only one I can think of is YOUNG QUINN, however he was the 1st In vitational winner ever at the Meadowlands on opening night.

Yes, good job. Seeing Young Quinn was when I first noticed how strong and durable harness horses could be. He ran some excellent races against the FFAllers of the mid to late 70s. Tarport Hap, Rambling Willie, Dream Maker, Keystone Accent, Try Scotch, Le Baron Rouge, etc.
