Grand Circuit, oldest continuing harness horse-racing series in the United States. It was begun in 1871 by Colonel Billy Edwards, a businessman from Cleveland, Ohio. The circuit, then known as the Quadrilateral Trotting Combination, held its first meetings in 1873 in Cleveland, in Utica and Buffalo, New York, and in Springfield, Massachusetts. The premier harness attraction in the United States, the Grand Circuit visits some 20 tracks annually. There are events for two- and three-year-old trotters and pacers.
