Sweden is the other European leader, along with France, in trotting races. This country regularly breeds great champions and has been listed seven times in the Prix d’Amerique “Legend Race”. Will Hail Mary add an eighth trophy in yellow and blue colors? In any case, this young 5-year-old champion has just won the title of best horse of the year 2020 in Sweden. His record is very impressive. He has won major races and has 17 wins in just 20 attempts. Robert Bergh, his trainer, considers him better than Power, his other resident known for his participations in the Prix d’Amérique Races ZEturf Qualif # 3 Critérium Continental and the recent Prix d’Amérique “Legend Race”.
Stefan Hultman, Maharajah‘s mentor, winner of the 2014 Prix d’Amérique “Legend Race”, is now a consultant for a Swedish equestrian media. He bluntly said, “I think Hail Mary will win the Prix d’Amérique next year.” We can’t wait to see the new Scandinavian darling enter the Prix d’Amérique Races ZEturf competition. His French rivals are waiting for him firmly!
