Driver Joe Bongiorno scored the 3,000th win of his career by taking the seventh race on Thursday night (February 8) at MGM Yonkers Raceway with Emotions Riches. Emotions Riches, a 6-year-old gelding by Wheeling N Dealin, took the lead from first-over heading to the 1:26 three-quarters and drew off to tally by three lengths in 1:56 1/5 for trainer Travis Alexander and owner Rags To Riches Of PA LLC. Bongiorno, who began driving in 2010, finished fifth in the local standings a year ago. His lifetime earnings are over $46.3 million, and his major triumphs include the Little Brown Jug in 2020 with Captain Barbossa and the 2019 Breeders Crown Open Pace with American History. ► Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter Thursday's program featured two $35,000 Invitational Trot, one for horses and geldings and one for fillies and mares, and driver Yannick Gingras took both of them.
