  • Doing a marvelous impression of great-grandpa, No Nukes!! Specifically his last-to-first win of the 82’ Meadowlands Pace (but Tricky Styx won by a MUCH much larger margin…with a lot of gas still left in the tank). Chef’s kiss 🎉
  • Having been interested in the sport since the 1970's the greatest finish in my opinion was by Lord Module in the Allan Matson Free For All 1981 at Addington, he showed unbelievable speed in the closing stages finishing like a tornado after being last at the top of the straight. He rolled a grand circuit standard field, including Gammalite and many other top notch horses. Can be viewed on youtube. Lord Module was one of the most brilliant pacers but also incredibly temperamental, risky proposition to bet on. A complete enigma.

    Horse that ran second put in a huge performance! Lots of energy expended on the outside trip.
  • @ms.reneer1010
    Wow that was a hell of an finish that last horse in yellow start last and finish first. Now that is a good race.

    For me the greatest horse was New Zealand bred Mount Eden who was a renowned bad starter as well as punished by big handicaps in standing start races. Watch the 1971 Miracle Mile to see what a machine he was.
  • MISLEADING TITLE BY THE POSTER OF THIS VIDEO.. THE OWNER, TRAINER OF TRICKY STICKS!!
  • The greatest race finish was Rev Your Engine coming from last to go head to head with race leader Angels Shadow in the 1986 Gold Cup and Saucer at the Charlottetown Driving Park in Charlottetown P.E.I. Canada. The race was contested on an extremely sloppy track as rain fell through the whole evening and both horses battled back and forth right to the finish line They were two very strong contenders and were both champions that night.

    Did Tricky Stix ever go on from this because he looks like a bloody champion horse
  • Not gonna lie, impressive, but I was expecting something like I saw at Sportsmans Park one time which was a 5 horse photo finish for the win
  • @user-hs2ei6vh1u
    The 2015 Little Brown Jug and the 2023 Mohawk Million 2yr old trot race, are quite memorable.
  • @NUS01
    best finish ever as the first time ever the leader didnt win and leaders back run second at Glocucester park
  • Not bad, but by no means the most improbable outcome in harness racing history. Just a couple of relatively recent instances which I think were at least, if indeed, not more impressive than Tricky Styx's effort of winning after being relegated for most of the race are, New World Order's win at Gloucester park a few seasons ago , and Blackjackzack's at the same track in 2017.

    Tricky Styx isn't even in the database of all horses. I've seen races at Orangeville raceway where horses make up almost one hundred lengths after a break to win races. I've seen it numerous times with William "Budd" Fritz. He brings out a maiden very well bred and runs it against glue factory horses and the horse breaks in his/her maiden then comes back on to make up about 90 lengths and win by about 10 lengths.
