3YO world record in Sweden

 Return Home
August 18, 2006 Send To A Friend  | Print View

Going Kronos, a 3-year-old colt by Viking Kronos out of a Pine Chip mare, trotted to a world record of 1:53.1 Friday over the five-eighths mile Gevle track in Sweden. The previous record for a 3-year-old trotter on a five-eighths mile track was the 1:54 standard set by Sir Perseverance last December at Dover Downs.

Going Kronos turned in his record-setting effort over a distance of 1,640 meters, which is 31 meters longer than one mile. His 1:53.1 clocking is a mile-rated time.

Lutfi Kolgjini, the guy who brought Revenue to the U.S., trains and drives Going Kronos. Earlier this year Kolgjini entertained thoughts of bringing the colt to the U.S. and supplementing him to the Kentucky Futurity, but he reportedly has changed his mind.

Going Kronos is out of the Pine Chip-sired broodmare Bell Power. Viking Kronos, who stands at Menhammar Stud near Stockholm, is a blue-blooded son of 1993 Hambletonian champion American Winner and 1983 Oaks winner Conch.
