The Record
Seawind Romeo appears in the surviving Plainridge programs across 2 seasons, 2005 to 2007, with 1 start for which the official chart records a finishing position. One of those produced a win, and the horse finished in the first three on 1 occasion altogether.
The fastest mile recorded here is 1:55.4, set on Monday, September 26, 2005. A harness time is written in minutes, seconds and fifths, so the final digit is a fifth of a second rather than a hundredth. On a track of this size like Plainridge a horse turns four times in a mile, which costs ground against the bigger tracks and makes comparison against the divisional marks misleading.
The winner's line in the chart gives the breeding as 4, h LISRYAN out of RUN BAMBI RUN, herself by SAMADHI. Harness pedigrees are quoted in that order — sire, dam, then the dam's own sire — because the maternal grandsire carries much of the weight in judging a standardbred family.
The classes Seawind Romeo was entered in run to NW200PS, OPEN, NW300PS. These are condition races rather than claiming events, so eligibility rested on money already won rather than on a posted purchase price.
The drivers who sat behind Seawind Romeo most often were Winston D Campbell (1). Driver changes matter more in harness racing than the bare numbers suggest, because the same horse can be driven for early speed or held for a late quarter depending on who holds the lines.

Questions about this horse
Who drove Seawind Romeo?
Winston D Campbell took every recorded drive — 1 start.
Was Seawind Romeo a trotter or a pacer?
Both gaits appear in this record: pace and trot. That is unusual and is worth reading as the chart wrote it rather than as a settled fact.
Which conditions was Seawind Romeo entered under?
NW200PS, OPEN and NW300PS. Each code is a set of eligibility conditions rather than a grade — the class pages explain what each one admitted.
What were the odds on Seawind Romeo?
The shortest price in the recovered charts is 2.00 to one. Odds are the closing figures printed on the chart, so they reflect what the pool decided at the off, not a forecast.
How often did Seawind Romeo go to the gate here?
The record shows 1 charted start for Seawind Romeo, 2005 to 2007. The name appears on 4 race days in all once entry sheets are counted, because a horse can be drawn into a race and then scratched before it is run. That is what the programmes and result sheets hold, not necessarily the horse's full career: starts made at other tracks are outside this record.
Did Seawind Romeo ever win here?
Yes — 1 win from 1 start, a strike rate of 100%. Adding 0 seconds and 0 thirds, Seawind Romeo finished in the first three on 1 occasion.
What is the best time recorded for Seawind Romeo?
1:55.4, on 2005-09-26. Harness times are read as minutes, seconds and fifths, so 1:55.4 is 1 minute and the rest in seconds — the final fifth is the digit after the last point.
