Hanover Shoe Farms Inc. has announced that it has purchased 2017 Two-Year-Old Pacing Filly of the Year and World Champion Youaremycandygirl  p,3,1:48.2 ($1,647,229).

Winner of the Breeders Crown, She’s A Great Lady and Three Diamonds at two and the Empire Breeders Classic and Matron at three, Youaremycandygirl is from harness racing’s most productive pacing family. Not only is Youaremycandygirl a star in her own right, she is out of a sister to young stallion sensation Sweet Lou p,2,1:49; 3,1:47.4; 1:47f ($3,484,251), Bettor Sweet p, 3,1:49.3; 4,1:47.2 ($2,816,687) and the dam of the sensational Captain Crunch p,2,1:49.1; 3,1:47.2 ($1,725,495).

“The purchase of Youaremycandygirl is another huge step in our plan to add the best of the best to our broodmare ranks. Hanover has always prided itself in having the most productive broodmare band in the business and by purchasing mares such as 'Candygirl' we show our commitment to staying on top, says Executive Vice President Dr. Bridgette Jablonsky. “I believe that by purchasing Youaremycandygirl and Hannelore Hanover we have added the most exciting pacing and trotting broodmare prospects to come off the track in 2020 and probably in quite some time.”

Plans call for Youaremycandygirl to be bred to Bettors Delight in 2020.
