Hall of Fame in 1959: A 1918 foal, The Laurel Hall, out of Peter the Great-Baby Bertha, was owned by Stoughton Fletcher of Laurel Hall Farm in Indiana. As a two-year-old he took a record of 2:08 1/4 and he won many races in his three-year-old season. At four, then owned by Good Time Stables of Goshen, New York and trained by Walter Cox, The Laurel Hall trotted in 2:06 1/4. Because of recurring lameness, he was retired to stud by William H. Cane in 1923.

Winner of the Hambletonian Stakes 1948. When Demon Hanover swept the two-heat 1948 Hambletonian, “Steamin’ Demon” and owner-driver Harrison Hoyt were joined in the winner’s circle by Hoyt’s wife and two young sons. Hoyt, a Bethel, Connecticut hat manufacturer, had been driving for just three years. Purchased for $2,600 at the Harrisburg Sale, Demon Hanover raced in Saratoga Amateur trots at two. In 1948, he won the Historic Dickinson Cup and the Matron before the Hambletonian. It was the only time that a Hambletonian winner was selected, trained, and driven by an amateur. Demon Hanover dominated not only the three-year-olds, but also the free-for-allers, racing until the end of the 1951 season. He retired with a then trotting record $187,344.61 to his credit, with wins in the Roosevelt Two Mile Trot, American Trotting Championship, Trotting Derby, aged division of the Hambletonian, Sportsman’s Park Trotting Derby (twice), Batavia Downs Invitational and the Michigan Governor’s Trophy. Sold to Walnut Hall Farm for the huge amount of 500,000 dollar, but died shortly after to colic, only 12 years old. Hall of Fame in 2000.
