Record by son of Niatross
Nihilator, a colt from the first crop sired by the re-cord-breaking Niatross, was successful in the $2.16 million Woodrow Wilson Pace at The Meadowlands, New Jersey. He earned slightly more than $1 million as his share of the stake and paced the mile in Imin 52.45, shattering the previous best of Imin 53.6 s set by Trim the Trees. Nihilator, now unbeaten in nine starts, is out of the Bret Hanover mare, Margie’s Melody. He is trained by Billie Haughton and was driven by William O’Donnell.
