Harrah's Hoosier Park Racing & Casino brought to a close its 29th season of live harness racing on Saturday, December 10. In addition to a 13-race card, the leading driver and leading trainer honors were awarded. Driver Trace Tetrick took home his 11th leading driver title and trainer Tyler George brought home his third consecutive leading trainer trophy. The all-time leading driver at Harrah's Hoosier Park, Tetrick picked up right where he left off following a record- breaking season in 2021. Hopping in the bike 1,750 times this season, Tetrick visited the winner's circle 387 times in 2022, the second-highest win total in any season recorded by a driver at Harrah's Hoosier Park behind only Tetrick's 2021 total of 403 wins. As it has been in seasons past, the top-three drivers consisted of Tetrick, John De Long and Sam Widger. De Long held the silver with a record-breaking season of his own with 276 wins from 1,635 starts, with Widger completing the podium after picking up 232 wins from 1,531 starts. Taking home his ninth consecutive leading driver title, Tetrick currently resides once more in the top-five nationally in driving wins, sitting fourth with 536 victories. Since picking up his first $1 million dollar season in 2007, Tetrick has continually earned at least $2 million every season since, and in 2022 scored his first $7 million year. Tetrick surged over the $75 million mark for his career in 2022 and is rapidly approaching 7,000 career victories with 6,848 career trips to victory lane thus far. With the Breeders Crown set to return to his home track in 2023, Tetrick won't only be looking for his 12th driving title, but also to add to his Breeders Crown total, which currently stands at three. His victories came with Freaky Feet Pete in 2015, and Blazin Britches and Fiftydallarbill in the Breeders Crown debut at Harrah's Hoosier Park in 2017. "I'm just very fortunate to get to drive a lot of great racehorses," Tetrick would say, "I'm so grateful to the trainers and owners that put me up on such great horses, as well as the grooms and caretakers that do such an incredible job caring for these horses. I'm incredibly fortunate to get to drive great horses for great people." ► Sign up for our FREE DRF Harness Digest Newsletter After winning his first Harrah's Hoosier Park leading trainer title in 2020, Tyler George hasn't relinquished the title since. George smashed the all-time single season wins record for a trainer at the oval, with his pupils scoring 126 victories in 2022, breaking the previous record of 119 shared by George's 2021 and originally set in 2018 by Jeff Cullipher. Across all tracks in 2022, it was also a record-breaking earnings year for the George stable, with his first $2 million dollar season headlined by two Indiana Sires Stakes Super Final winners in Need To Breathe and Adamsville Road, as well as standout freshman pacing filly Rollin Rosie. George is no stranger to Indiana Sires Stakes success, having trained the likes of champs Golden Paradise and Always A Prince, the latter of which garnered national attention with a romp in the $350,000 TVG final in 2019 at the Meadowlands for George. "It's a really special accomplishment for our stable," George continued, "I couldn't do it alone. I'm so thankful for Cassy and the great team of people we work with each and every day, wonderful owners and Trace Tetrick always does such a good job driving. It's a total team effort." The Saturday night program wrapped up a historic and record-breaking season on a multitude of levels at Harrah's Hoosier Park Racing & Casino.
