Francois Dupuis Sets New World Record at Quebec Dog Derby
Francois Dupuis led the field on the final day to win the gold cup and $1000, breaking the previous world record by about 17 minutes. Russick finished second with a 12 hour 40 minute 123 mile run, while St. Goddard had held last year’s mark. Poirier failed to finish the third day as winds and snow battered the course. A banquet at Chateau Frontenay capped the event with W Gerard Power presenting prizes and Young Paddy Nolan named youngest participant.
