For decades, the Pepsi North America Cup has been Canadian harness racing's premier event and one of the most sought-after stakes event in the sport. As the million-dollar pace looks ahead to its 2021 edition this June, we're asking fans of racing to help determine the best Pepsi North America Cup of all time.

For the month of March (and a few days into April), a new set of races will be posted each day at 11:30 a.m. (Eastern) for fans to have their say on which North America Cup is the best. Voting will only be open for each set of races for 24 hours. In the event of a tie, voting will be left open for 30 additional minutes.

With 37 editions of the Pepsi North America Cup in the history books, you've helped narrow the participants down to a group of 32 races to face off in a March Madness-style tournament bracket. In order to determine the field of 32, six races were selected at random in a preliminary round. The winner of the prelim round (1989), plus the other 31 editions of the Pepsi North America Cup, will comprise the field of 32.

Here are the winning editions of the North America Cup from the first round thus far:
March 6 bracket: 1999, won by The Panderosa (def. 1990 with 58.3% of the votes)

March 5 bracket: 2013, won by Captaintreacherous (def. 2007 with 86.5% of the votes)

March 4 bracket: 1998, won by Straight Path (def. 1984 with 70.8% of the votes)

March 3 bracket: 2019, won by Captain Crunch (def. 2018 with 65.8% of the votes)

The bracket pairings for the opening round of 32 will be determined by random assignment and each pairing will be revealed on the day of voting.

Here is the next first-round bracket. Vote now for the best Pepsi North America Cup, with voting ending on March 8, 2021 at 11:29 a.m.
