Burke hoping the time is now for AIWashington, PA – Hall of Fame harness racing trainer Ron Burke thinks 3-year-old trotter AI (Chapter Seven) will win a big race in the near future. “He’s a very nice horse,” Burke said. AI finished fifth in his elimination last week, 2-1/2 lengths behind winner Apex, to advance to the final of the 101st edition of America’s Trotting Classic for 3-year-olds. In 2025, AI won five of 14 races, with one second and four thirds, earning $395,073. AI is owned jointly by the Burke Racing Stable, Hatfield Stables, Knox Services Inc, and Weaver Bruscemi LLC.
