The esteemed trotter was invited to compete in a number of prestigious races in Finland, Norway, Sweden and Denmark after winning the Su Mac Lad trotting series at the Meadowlands Track in New Jersey in late February. Since landing in Sweden on April 9 with trainer Bill (Jesse) James of Blackstock, Village Beretta has raced twice. - In his first race he finished a close second at the Finlandia Ajo in Helsinki on April 26, a length and a half behind Zoogin, the 1995-96 Swedish and European trotting cham- pion. But he wasn't as lucky In his second race, the Oslo Grand Prix in Norway on May 11. Parked three- wide for a mile, it was tough going for the horse, and he ended up sixth. "It was a horseman's worst nightmare," Mr. Van Camp said. "It (the race) was real tough on him, but that's what harness racing is all about; you have to take the good with the bad."
