Today, Larry goes one-on-one with John Campbell, President and CEO of the Hambletonian Society, as Woodbine Mohawk Park hosts the Breeders Crown Finals for both three-year-olds and open divisions. A double Hall of Famer and one of the most accomplished drivers in harness racing history, John shares what fans can expect from tonight’s Breeders Crown action, highlights the races he’s most looking forward to, and explains the important role the Hambletonian Society plays within the Standardbred industry. He also reflects on his legendary driving career, the mentors who shaped him, and what he believes are the biggest changes in the sport since his competitive days behind the sulky.

Also today, Woodbine Thoroughbred Trainer Santino Di Paola joins the show for the first time. Santino saddles two mares — Lady in Red and Little Teddy — in today’s Eternal Search Stakes, named in honor of the three-time Canadian champion race mare. He discusses how he prepares multiple runners for the same race, what it’s like when two horses have similar running styles, and how his partnership with jockey Austin Adams has developed over the years. Santino also looks back on his career beginnings, recalls his first win, and talks about what’s gone right during his strong 2025 campaign.

Then, Woodbine Trainer Norman McKnight joins the program for his first appearance following the announcement of his retirement later this year. With over 1,000 career wins and $28 million in purse earnings, Norman looks back on his successful career in both the Thoroughbred and Standardbred worlds. He discusses what led to his decision to retire, what he’ll miss most about training, and how he transitioned between breeds earlier in his career. Norman shares stories of standout horses like War Bomber, reflects on mentors who helped him along the way, and talks about what’s next as he steps away from the sport.
