Mike Wilder notches career win 9,000 at The Meadows
Washington, PA — Mike Wilder collected career win 9,000 when he captured Wednesday’s (July 3) 10th race at Hollywood Casino at The Meadows with Distant Drums. A native of Springfield, Ohio, Wilder launched his harness racing career at the age of 14, driving matinees and working for the small stable of his stepfather, Dave Ritter.
