The horse that the Daily Racing Form described as “the fastest horse in harness racing history” when he equaled Always B Miki’s world-record time for the mile in 1:46 flat at the Meadowlands in the $250,000 Graduate final, for 4-year-old male pacers.  Lather Up established the world-record for 1 1/8 mile in 1:59.2 after an internal fraction for the mile in 1:46.3 also at the Meadowlands.  In all, Lather Up set six track-records at ages two, three, and four.

Lather Up‘s many track record performances are impressive and unmatched. He has beat millionaires with the likes of McWicked, Jimmy Freight, Courty Choice and others. He has established himself as a dominant force on the track. Diamond Creek is excited to have him stand stud at their Davenport farm.
