TORONTO, March 15, 2018 – No driver has won more races in Canada over the past two seasons than Bob McClure and Thursday night at Woodbine Racetrack saw the young reinsman reach a career-milestone. McClure, 27, steered Princess Jewels to victory in the evening’s tenth race to record his 2,000th career driving victory. A resident of Elora, Ontario, McClure has been racking up the wins and driving titles at tracks throughout Ontario over the last few seasons. In 2016, McClure won a nation’s best 576-races and was named a finalist for the O’Brien Award as Canada’s Driver of the Year. Princess Jewels captures the Thursday card closer! McClure once again topped 500 wins in 2017 with 508 trips to the winner’s circle. He also posted a career-high for earnings by driving the winners of over $3.1 million during the 2017 campaign. The current Woodbine Fall-Winter meet has been a breakout of sorts for McClure, as he has focused more attention on driving regularly at Canada’s top harness track. McClure has amassed 38 wins during the Woodbine Winter-Fall meet and ranks among the track’s top-10 drivers. Woodbine Entertainment would like to congratulate Bob McClure on reaching 2,000 career wins. Share This:Share
