Quest for Excellence: Hanover Shoe Farms--The First 75 Years

Here is the story of Hanover Shoe Farms, truly one of the great breeding farms of the world. Hanover began breeding horses before Lindbergh flew the Atlantic, before the first Hambletonian was run, and before Al Jolson starred in the first talking motion picture.

Through the years, Hanover-bred horses have earned about $400 million and the offspring of its stallions over the years total nearly $1 billion. The Hanover story is about the people who made the farm great and those who continue the tradition of excellence. It is about the great broodmares and stallions that produced some of the best horses the harness racing world has seen. It is about the vision and work of the Hanover team as they embark on a new century.
