Grove City, OH – Sippinonsearoc is now a back-to-back divisional award winner after being named the 2025 Ohio 3-Year-Old Pacing Colt of the Year.

Named the Ohio 2-Year-Old Pacing Colt of the Year in 2024 with a record of 6-2-1 and $568,000 in earnings in 11 starts, Sippinonsearoc had an even better season in 2025. The son of Downbytheseaside out of Queen Ann M recorded seven wins, two seconds, and three thirds and banking $792,375 in 15 starts to surpass $1 million in career earnings. He won the $600,000 Breeders Crown at Woodbine Mohawk Park on Oct. 25 in a stakes-record and lifetime-best 1:47.3 on top of taking the $400,000 Kentucky Championship Series final and the $100,000 fifth leg of the Ohio Sires Stakes.

Trainer Ron Burke believes Sippinonsearoc may have had even more success if not for some talented stablemates.
“There’s no telling what that horse would’ve done if not for other horses from my own barn,” Burke said. “Every time he got beat, it was by a horse from my barn. He’s really a top-notch horse.”

Bred by Trent Stohler Stable and Alesha Binkley, Sippinonsearoc has a record of 13-4-4 in 26 careerstarts, banking $1.36 million. He is owned by Burke Racing Stable, Weaver Bruscemi, RAS Racing,and Knox Services.

Sippinonsearoc will be honored at the Ohio Harness Horsemen’s Association Annual Awards Banquet on Jan. 10 at the Renaissance Columbus-Westerville in Westerville, Ohio.

The 2025 Ohio Horse of the Year will be announced at the awards banquet.
