Discuss European harness racing here
Worlds biggest(?) trot race on at Vincennes, Paris Sunday night our time. Hopefully doesn't get moved to Sky 2 :D:D . As always some awesome video preludes done by the French media on Youtube are available. Bold Eagle has question marks over him...
Follow the link Below to view Doonbeg Breaking A fifteen year old track record at Corbiewood in Scotland, UK This Year. A 3/8ths mile track. There are other videos from the track there too. http://www.youtube.com/user/thewatchfuleye100
anyone know how Armbro Laser is doing in Italy
unfortunately there was not enough time to logistically arrange all the blood work, and travel documents. Also, my father (John DuCHARME) is 90, and travel is difficult, and thus he could NOT come and watch his horse. VoS is "in" @ The Poconos...
The dam ( First Dance) of one of our horses (Quick Work who raced in europe) had a foal (filly) exported to russia. Is there any info available about russian trotting ? Richard DuCHARME

For an american who has raced in Europe. The level of fan appreciation and support is heartwarming. American " Racinos" would "drop" LIVE racing in a heart-beat IF they are allowed ? I am glad the weather cooperated in Stockholm. When I was...
Here is the link http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/specialseries/2017/04/sports-doping-endless-chase-170413073512026.html It is a 2-part documentry I have NO problem naming trainers like Fabrice Souloy (cobalt) or Ake Svanstedt...
Norway Trotting has shown some real courage and handed down a suspension worthy of the crime (doping) to French Trainer. Hopefully Sweden will also suspend Fabrice Souloy ? However ? IF they simply allow "trainership" to shift on "paper" to his...
Most drugs get "mixed" into a "cocktail" of general performance drugs that are LEGALLY used 24-72 hours BEFORE the race in that quest to "make the horse FEEL better" (race better) with a veterinarians help as part of THEIR training "skills" And...
Well Dad ( John DuCHARME ) did ( he is 90 now ) drive... It wasn't very often. The most interesting part to the European readers is the horse ( Richie Prospect ) who was named after ME. But more important finished 2nd to both Nevele Pride and...
Or at least the last foal (alive) in the USA. There "might" be some in SWEDEN ? If anyone knows ? CROWNTRON of course being the sire of QUEEN L. Won won, and was 3rd in Prix de Amerique I think it is a horse named CROWNMINISTER (EE915) ? ...
This concerns a filly CIAMPINO (speedy crown - candor's lady) that Dad trained for Jim Harrison. Dad got 1/2 of this filly for "training" her, and actually drove her on the PA Sires (fair) circuit. Jim sold (exported) her to GERMANY at the end...
This race was very exciting, but a heartbreak as well. It hurts when circumstances beat your horse, and you can't do ANYTHING about it !! QUICK WORK was NOT a easy gate horse. And getting him "out" and thru the first turn was always a...
Sebastian Coe, or at least someone like him to grab this issue of PED's by the horns, and wrestle it to the ground ? If he didn't already have a job ? I would say HIRE him ! ...
HIPA - Health Information Privacy Act. Does Europe have such a rule ? I don't know ? Horses are considered AGRICULTURAL PROPERTY, not any different than a cow, pig, or chicken. They can be bought, sold, and even "slaughtered" purely on the...
Lemon Dra seemed to just disapear ? And that happened YEARS ago. I read he was a mean as Nevele Pride ? so the kidnappers might have just shot him ? But the kidnapping the "bombshell" was last year ? Any word ? R DuCHARME
I would like to obtain a "frame able" copy of a article that appeared after our 1975 trip to Sovalla. The day AFTER the elitlopp one of the swedish papers declared QUICK WORK the "moral" victor, after he won his elimination, and finished a...
I realize of course he sends THOUSANDS of such "autographed" ( auto-pen I am sure) photos every year. But still he sent one to my Dad (at my request) and I am grateful I am sure I would get something similar if I wrote to ABBA ? lol Still,...
Imagine that ? Who would have thought such a thing ? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-cup/2018/06/21/fifa-refuse-reveal-russia-drug-test-numbers-following-hostss/ Nobody "cheats" in sports, do they ? Certainly NOT in Horse Racing ? That...
