Deo Galileo became Canada's first harness racing two-year-old pari-mutuel race winner of 2016 with a strong maiden-crushing performance at Grand River Raceway on June 13.
Leaving from post five, the colt cruised wire-to-wire to finish one-and-three-quarter lengths the best over eight sophomores in 2:00.1 .
Driven by Doug McNair for trainer Gregg McNair, the son of If I Can Dream was a $22,000 yearling purchase at Harrisburg for owners Wayne Mac Rae and Bloomingwood Farms Ltd.
