Jamieson & Palone HTA Drivers of the Year

January 4, 2010

Jody Jamieson, Ontario’s new driving champion, finished in a dead heat with Dave Palone of Pennsylvania for Harness Tracks of America’s 2009 Driver of the Year award.

It was Palone’s fifth HTA cup, and Jamieson became the first Canadian driver ever to win while competing almost exclusively in Canadian races. Eight other Canadians have won in the 42-year history of the competition, but all drove primarily in the United States. Jamieson drove in 3,322 purse races last year, but 3,247 of them were in Canada and only 75 in the U.S.

Jamieson won 796 races and was 7th in both money won, with US$10,400,000 earned by his mounts and in-themoney percentages, with a .366 average. Palone was fourth in races won with 697, 6th in money with $10.7 million earned by horses he drove, and fifth with a .382 in-the-money average.
