๐๐ Happy 13th Birthday, Marion Marauder! ๐๐
Today weโre celebrating another year of excellence from Trotting Triple Crown champion Marion Marauder! Born into a family with deep roots in Standardbred racing, Marion Marauder was trained by Mike Keeling and Paula Wellwood and owned by their son Devin Keeling along with Wellwoodโs mother, Jean.
Marion Marauder etched his name into harness racing history in 2016 when he captured the Hambletonian, Yonkers Trot, and Kentucky Futurity to claim the coveted Trotting Triple Crown. His dramatic, photo-finish win in the Hambletonian finalโafter a career-best 1:51.3 performance in the eliminationsโremains a standout moment in the sport.
Since arriving at the Hall of Champions in 2022, Marion Marauder has continued to impress fans with his friendly demeanor and undeniable champion presence. If youโre visiting this year, stop by his stall and help us wish him the happiest 13th birthday! ๐ด๐๐ฅณ
