For you, Varenne. I never saw you race live, but I felt you run inside me.
He was not born a champion. He was a small foal with unsteady legs, born on May 19, 1995, at Zenzalino Farm in Copparo, Ferrara. His name came from a street in Paris - rue de Varenne. He would make that street famous.
This is not a book of statistics. This is Varenne's story, told in his own voice.
From his difficult youth and a fracture that almost stopped him before he began, to his debut in Bologna on April 4, 1998. From the Derby Italiano in Rome to the roar of Vincennes. From third place at the Prix d'Amérique in 2000 to winning it in 2001 and 2002. From the Gran Premio Lotteria in Naples to the Elitloppet in Sweden. From Italy to France, Sweden, Finland, and across the ocean to win the Breeders Crown at the Meadowlands in 1'091 - a world record - the first European trotter to do it.
73 starts. 62 victories. 51 Grand Prix. Over 6,036,655 in earnings. Horse of the Year in three countries.
