Harness: Glidemaster moves to Winbak of Delaware

Winbak Farm today announced that World Champion racehorse and sire Glidemaster is being relocated to Winbak Farm of Delaware.

“We’re glad we are able to stand a Horse of the Year and a sire who’s already producing world-class trotters. We’re excited to have him standing here at Winbak of Delaware where his offspring will be eligible to the profitable Delaware program,” said Winbak Farm owner, Joe Thomson.

Glidemaster, 2, 1:55 3/5; 3, 1:51 ($1,969,847), was a Triple Crown winner who captured the Hambletonian in stakes record time of 1:51 1/5. When Glidemaster won the Triple Crown, he was only the 2nd trotter to do it since 1972. At 3, he retired the richest single season trotter ever with earnings of $1,918,701. He was an overwhelming selection as Horse of the Year.

His progeny is led by USHWA and O’Brien Older Trotting Mare of the Year, Maven, 1:51 4/5h ($1,997,809).
