The March of Dimes Trot was a trotting race that took place at Garden State Park Racetrack, New Jersey on November 17, 1988. It is considered one of the most legendary races at trotting history. The race was connected with March of Dimes charity foundation. The idea of the race was a duel between American world-record-breaker Mack Lobell, who had just been sold to Sweden and the famous French trotter Ourasi. Both horses had been racing in Europe but they had never met. The one-mile race featured also eight other horses from Europe and North America. Three of the European participants (Napoletano, Sugarcane Hanover and Friendly Face) were American-bred.〔 The race evoked great interest in Europe. More than 70 reporters had flown to cover the race. A four-hour television coverage was sent to France and the race was also broadcast in Sweden. Surprisingly only a crowd of 8,000 people showed up at the racetrack. Hundreds of them were from Europe. Winner of the March of Dimes Trot was an American expatriate Sugarcane Hanover who was trained in Norway. Ourasi finished second and Mack Lobell who took the lead was third.〔 ==Results== 1 Country of the owner 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「March of Dimes Trot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
