Performing after the 6th race on the program, Silvestro put on a display of pyrotechnics done by no one else on earth. Silvestro actually stands on the shafts of his racing bike, hold the reins in his teeth, 15,000 candle-power marine boat flares in his hands, and then proceeds to electronically shoot of more than 2,000 rounds of fireworks from the back of his racing bike, all while Hand Me Silver races around the dark track.

At the end of the performance there is a “Circle Of Fire” display in the centerfield that also had the crowd on the edge of their seats.

Even one of harness racing’s icons of the sport, announcer Roger Huston of The Meadows had this to say about Silvestro’s performance Saturday.

“It is still the most spectacular show in harness racing.” Huston said. “I have seen Vince’s show a few times now and I still get as excited as when I call the Little Brown Jug final. He is just a master horseman and I know that no one else could ever train a horse to perform this show as Vince has done. His display of fireworks tonight was one of the best I have ever seen and the crowd loved it.”
