Last Saturday, driver Scott Zeron wore Lindy Farms colors rather than his own while driving International Moni to victory in his Goodtimes elimination. Lindy’s Frank M. Antonacci said he hopes it’s just the beginning of drivers wearing owner colors in marquee events.
By Dave Briggs Anyone thinking Lindy Farms was staging a publicity stunt last Saturday when driver Scott Zeron wore the farm’s colors while driving International Moni to victory in his Goodtimes elimination at Mohawk don’t know the Antonacci family. It’s just the beginning, Lindy head trainer Frank M. Antonacci told HRU Friday evening. Pending judges’ approval again this week, Zeron will be wearing Lindy’s black, blue and white colors rather than his own white, blue and red tonight when he drives International Moni in the $251,000 final of the Goodtimes for sophomore trotting colts (race 10) on the Pepsi North America Cup undercard. “I believe in it. Create Projector Adobe Director Lingo. It’s something we’re going to give a shot and I encourage other owners to do the same,” Antonacci said of drivers following the thoroughbred tradition of jockeys wearing owner silks rather than their own.
“To me, it just makes sense. Do I think every overnight is going to have guys with owner colors? But the places where we showcase our sport and showcase our breed, why wouldn’t owners and farms demand that these guys wear these colors?
It’s their horses, their product and it’s the greatest billboard you can have for your brand — your winning horse.” Antonacci said it’s not only a great way to help attract new owners, but the particular colors Lindy is using may also have a competitive advantage. “It’s a company called Speed Silks that makes jockey silks,” Antonacci said. “There’s traditional jockey silks that’s the same material as our traditional colors, but this company called Speed Silks makes the tighter material that’s more aerodynamic, less wind resistant and has less drag. Think about what professional cyclists wear.
