Trainer Erv Miller has campaigned his share over champions over the past decade but on Saturday at Spring Garden Ranch in Florida he will send out a new addition to his

stable.

Sure to garner much interest at Saturday's matinee races will be Albion King Espolon (pictured at right), a pacer imported to the US from Argentina making his North American debut. Bred by Haras Albion, Albion King Espolon is a five-year-old son of former North American open class pacer Mumbo King who was exported to Argentina in 2003.

Other notables set to compete include Indiana Sires Stakes Champions Radar Contact and Marky Mike.

Matinee Day at Spring Garden Ranch features harness racing with some of the top names in the sport, plus wagon rides, clowns, a kissing camel, pony rides, Keystone Cops, an Antique Car Show, Food Vendors, Mini Mule Rides and more. Admission is free with a $2 parking donation and net proceeds to benefit the Shriners Hospital.
