1999 Hambletonian - Self Possessed & Mike Lachance

The final Hambletonian of the 20th century set new standards for the sport as two industry records were shattered on an electric day in August. In a blistering performance, Self Possessed posted the fastest trotting mile in harness history in the $1 million final, and the total handle of $7,132, 583 set the mark as the highest in the sport.
