What would you like to know? He set the woodbine track record, then followed up a week later with a world record. Very good horse, excellent 100K claim. Won the Newhamshire sweepstakes at rockingham park. I think we were second in the Dan Patch in Indiana. Montini turned him into a monster. I have some pics I'll post.
On the heels of a ninth-place finish in a conditioned pace at Woodbine Racetrack on Saturday evening, the connections of Primetime Bobcat have announced the retirement of the former World Record holder.
The 11-year-old son of Abercrombie, who had the harness racing industry buzzing when he sizzled to a 1:47.2 mile at Woodbine Racetrack on May 13, 2006, hangs up his hopples with 48 lifetime wins and earnings in excess of $740,000.
Primetime Bobcat was trained by Anthony Montin.
"I always said tf he wasn't going to be a useful horse, he would come and live in my backyard," Montini told Trot Insider. "He doesn't owe us anything."
Primetime Bobcat, who battled back from a number of injuries throughout the course of his career, won multiple editions of the Open Pace in addition to the $100,000 Woodbine Gold Cup Invitational, the $115,500 Spring Pacing Championship and the $120,000 New Hampshire Sweepstakes.
In 2006, he won 14 of 31 races and banked $498,350. The world record night was so exciting. I was there with my family we couldn't believe it when we saw the time. It was a fun ride travelling with a racehorse that year.
