He earned $428,057 as a racehorse.[1] BackgroundMeadow Skipper was a brown horse foaled in 1960 by Dale Frost out of the U. S. Harness Racing Hall of Fame mare Countess Vivian by Kings Council.[2] CareerTrained and driven by Earle Avery, Meadow Skipper was a world or season champion during each year that he raced.[3] He won the 1963 Cane Pace, and placed second in the Little Brown Jug.[1] Stud recordWhen he retired to the breeding farm, Meadow Skipper sired more than 1,700 progeny.[1] As a stud, his progeny earned $66 million. He sired 456 two-minute pacers, including Triple Crown winners Ralph Hanover and Most Happy Fella;[1][3] plus Albatross, sire of Niatross,[4] Chairmanoftheboard, and Naughty But Nice. The winnings of the 2,546 progeny of Albatross, Meadow Skipper's son, earned $130,700,280.[5] Niatross is believed by many to be the greatest harness horse of all time. He was Harness Horse of the Year as a two- and three-year-old in 1979 and 1980, won the Triple Crown of Harness Racing for Pacers, and obliterated the world record by three full seconds with a mile time of 1:49.1.[4] RetirementMeadow Skipper retired to Stoner Creek Farm in Kentucky, and died there in 1982.[1] In 1983, Meadow Skipper was inducted into the United States Harness Racing Hall of Fame.[6] Pedigree{{Pedigree|name = Meadow Skipper (USA), Standardbred brown, 1960[1] |f = Dale Frost (1951) p,1:58m; $204,117 |m = Countess Vivian (1950) p,3,1:59m; $43,262 |ff = Hal Dale (1926) p,6,2:02¼m; $595 |fm = Galloway (1939) p,2:04.4h; $5,294 |mf = Kings Council (1940) p,6,1:58m; $44,930 |mm = Filly Direct (1941) p,3,2:06¾h; $6,299 |fff = Abbedale (1917) p,2:01¼m |ffm = Margaret Hal (1914) p,2,2:19¼ |fmf = Raider (1929) p,1:59½m |fmm = Bethel (1926) |mff = Volomite (1926) 3,2:03¼m; $32,649 |mfm = Margaret Spangler (1918) p,2:02¼ |mmf = Billy Direct (1934) p,4,T1:55m; $12,040 |mmm = Calumet Edna (1931) p,2:19¾h |ffff = The Abbe (1903) p,2:04 |fffm = Daisydale D.
