Commander Crowe Takes Breeders Crown Open Trot With Ease

Written By Hambletonian Society

Le Grand Blond -- European star Commander Crowe -- provided a grand finale to Saturday’s eight Breeders Crown races, winning the $500,000 Open Trot by three-quarters of a length over favorite Maven in a stakes-record-equaling 1:51 at the Meadowlands. 

An 11-year-old chestnut, Commander Crowe became the oldest Breeders Crown champion in history. Foiled Again, who won last season’s Breeders Crown Open Pace at the age of 9, held the record for oldest winner.
