En préparant ce 40e anniversaire de l’édition de Trot, le site Web de SC invitait nos membres et lecteurs à partager leurs meilleurs souvenirs. Au cours des ans, Trot a toujours été là pour raconter l’histoire de gens extraordinaires, de chevaux, de courses et endroits au sein de notre industrie.

In the lead up to this 40th Anniversary edition of TROT our SC website has been asking our members and readers to share their favourite memories. Throughout the years, TROT Magazine has been there telling our story of the special people, horses, races, and places within our industry.

Et le huitième jour, Dieu examina le paradis qu’il avait planifié, et se dit, « j’ai besoin d’un héros. » Ainsi, Dieu créa un cheval de course.

Dieu dit, « j’ai besoin de quelqu’un au cœur tellement gros et au corps tellement fort qu’elle puisse inspirer les enfants par ses yeux, les adultes par sa force, et tous les autres par sa beauté à en couper le souffle. »

And on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, “I need a hero.” So God made a racehorse.

God said, “I need somebody with a heart so big and a body so strong that she can inspire children through her eyes, adults with her strength, and everybody else by her breathtaking beauty.” So God made a racehorse.

Dean Hoffman takes us around the world, and provides his list of 40 can’t miss locations in harness racing.

So you want to train racehorses for a living and you’re wondering what it takes?
