Harness racing is a vital strand woven into the fabric of Fayette County, Ohio’s community spirit. The county seat, Washington Court House, celebrates this equine heritage with establishments like the Sulky Restaurant and a Standardbred computer store. The city’s newspaper, The Record-Herald, proudly displayed a horse, sulky, and driver on its masthead for many years, underscoring the importance of this sport. Further evidencing the area’s deep-rooted connection to harness racing is the Trotters Pointe subdivision. As stated on its website, the name is a nod to the rich, proud tradition of Standardbred horses in Fayette County. This book offers a closer look at some of the county’s renowned horsemen and horses, with stories that capture their achievements up to the 1970s.
