Charles County resident and St. Mary's Ryken High School graduate Jonathan Roberts attained the 4,000th driving victory of his harness racing career on Wednesday evening at Ocean Downs when he steered IC Brandonscowgirl to a 1:58.2 triumph in the second race on the card.
Roberts, a 1999 St. Mary's Ryken graduate, headed into the Wednesday card at Ocean Downs, a half-mile harness racing oval in Berlin that's five miles west of Ocean City, one win shy of the 4,000 plateau.
It did not take the Accokeek native long to reach the milestone — his first drive of the night was in the second race with IC Brandonscowgirl.
