It’s been a big year for Brookview Farm as many of their horses have earned a lot of wins. One more of the horses from their farm has now stepped up his game as Brookview Glider and Jordan Ross turned into a flying machine Thursday, July 30 at Harrah’s Hoosier Park.
Starting from post eight didn’t deter Brookview Glider from leaving the gate with speed, settling in third as King Tellit and Jay Cross held down the top spot through the quarter in :26.4. The field remained in single file through the half in :56.1 before the pace picked up in the final turn. King Tellit had a couple lengths on the field heading into the stretch.
In the lane, Ross found the room he needed to scoot Brookview Glider out and advance, getting the to wire just in time for the win by a neck over King Tellit. Brookview Glider paced home in :26.2 for the win in 1:51.0, a new lifetime mark. Rock My Memory and LeWayne Miller finished third.
Brookview Glider paid $48.80 for the win. The three-year-old son of Rockin Image is owned by Brian Code, James Nellinger, and Ernie Gaskin Stables. Gaskin trains the gelding, who now has four wins in 2026. After not winning as a two-year-old, he has come to life this year, earning more than half of his $80,000 bankroll.
Gaskin signed the ticket for Brookview Glider at the Hoosier Classic Yearling Sale for $23,000. He is the first foal of the Captaintreacherous mare Significant Other, who raced in Pennsylvania before becoming a brood mare. She is a half sister to the tough racehorse Bettor Again, a winner in 1:48.2 with more than $350,000 in earnings.
Earlier in the card, veteran trotter Meadowbrook Mark moved out in the lane and scored a victory in 1:55.0 in claiming action. The seven-year-old son of Dover Dan was driven to victory by Atlee Bender for Trainer Nikki Hauck. The gelding paid $9.40 for the win with Jailhouse Dance and Marcus Miller finishing second over Rock Party and John DeLong for third.
Meadowbrook Mark is owned by Haucks Racing Stables and was bred by Karl Miller. He now has 16 career wins with his best time of 1:54.3 taken as a five-year-old. Overall, he has earned more than $140,000.
