Auckland Reactor, New Zealand’s 2009 Horse of the Year, has arrived on North American soil for his six-year-old campaign and Trot Insider has received photos of the bay’s very first outing
.
On a cloudy Friday afternoon, Auckland Reactor and caretaker Jeremy Young were seen jogging for the first time in the United States at Magical Acres in Chesterfield, New Jersey.
Racing exclusively in Australia and New Zealand to this point, Auckland Reactor has earned $942,143 for his connections, which include Canadian owners Peter Heffering, Tom Kyron, Bill Loyens, Doug Millard, Irv Storfer, Fred Brayford and Dr. Michael Wilson.

I am very excited to see the "REACTOR" in North America and looking forward to following his exploits. Would be nice if you (Standardbred Canada) could arrange for his handlers to post a blog on your website so we can follow his progress. Wish his connections the very best of racing luck.

I hope he's on his game, so we can see his true mettle. I'm a big fan, and would love to see him do well.This is one of the champions that has treated us to his brilliance well beyond the age of three.Just what we need in North America, but I can only hope that his connections have him ready to kick butt! Anybody know if Pierce will be his driver, or is this still up in the air? He certainly expressed his willingness.
Can't wait to see what happens with the Reactor factor in the grand circuit. Aussie,Aussie,Oy,Oy,Oy!
