from Standardbred Canada

Mississauga, ON — Trot Insider has learned that Anndrovette, one of the toughest mares to ever look through a bridle and one of the most decorated pacers of the last decade, has been retired.

Now nine, the daughter of Riverboat King-Easy Miss retires with a summary of 45-22-27 from 144 lifetime starts, a mark of 1:48s and earnings in excess of $3.5 million. That’s quite the investment from the $65,000 spent by Bamond Racing and Joe Davino to obtain the then 3-year-old pacing filly from the 2010 Summer Mixed Sale at The Meadowlands. In the six seasons after that purchase, Anndrovette banked at least $350,000 in each one.

Not broodmare owners, the collective behind Anndrovette made the decision to sell. It only took one phone call to find a buyer: Al and Michelle Crawford’s Crawford Farms.
