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. Ironically, Ritter exited the business just as Wilder was deciding to make it his career, signing on as caretaker for the stable of Randy Owens and later, Virgil Morgan, Jr. He was itching to make it as a driver, but early on, assignments were hard to come by.
