This event is a long standing tradition that has stood the test of time. Attend this fascinating test of horse power and you'll find yourself returning next year.
Drawn to the field are horses from across the state of Minnesota with the exception of the Farmer's Race, which is an exciting show of Carlton County horses that don't run races by nature. You'll find them jockeyed by their owners both young and old. Being a premier event you'll witness some of the finest animals in racing. Carlton County Fair has maintained a reputation with horse breeders for an excellent race and don't be surprised to see some familiar horses that run the Cantebury Downs in Shakopee.
