EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ – Unlike the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Mikaela Wallin won’t have to choose between family and a lover who also happens to be a rival.

Wallin is the caretaker for Joviality S, the 7-2 second choice in the 97th edition of the $1 million Hambletonian, harness racing’s biggest event each year. Joviality S was trained by her brother, Marcus Melander, for Saturday’s race at The Meadowlands.
