Trottoer Broodie of the Year - Year 46 - Heat 1

[Gigi Gofaster]

Okay! Time to get caught up!

Each year I select mares for an informal trotter broodmare of the year award - the prize is a beautiful headshot! To be eligible, mares must have produced two or more stakes winners in the year. Eligible mares are listed here and a poll runs with the winner selected by votes. I'll work through the years one at a time (so I can space out my headshot purchases...). As I have a lot of these to get through, the poll will stay open for 5 days.

Remember you are voting for the performance of their offspring in Year 46 ONLY - later years will go up soon but the premise of the award is based on performance of offspring in a single year. Mares that are now deceased can have their headshot, or I will offer their owner as of Year 46 the option of using the headshot for one of their foals instead. Mares that already have a headshot can likewise have it for one of their foals.
