My name is Deveau Zubrod and I am the STARS representative at the U.S. Trotting Association. STARS is the USTA's online stallion guide and is a dynamic, searchable stallion guide that is automatically updated with the most recent information for your stallion and his progeny. We also have the always useful hypothetical matings available - and it's FREE for all mare owners to search the available stallions.

You can reach me at 877.800.8782 or at stars@ustrotting.com. Please visit http://stars.ustrotting.com.

I was raised on Brittany Farms, a Standardbred breeding farm in Versailles, KY, so I have always had a connection to Standardbreds.

Favorite horse?
My retired Saddlebred CH High Expectations...he's about 24 now and has won over 10 national and world titles. I would probably say that my favorite Standardbreds are Passionate Glide because she has so much heart and Moni Maker because she was such a fantastic race horse - and to watch the under saddle race with Julie Krone at the Red Mile was just incredible!

Favorite track?
Delaware County Fair - what could be better than the Little Brown Jug, and of course Grand Circuit racing at the Red Mile.

Favorite driver?
I can't pick a favorite - but I think young drivers like Tim Tetrick are great for the sport and we should encourage people from our younger generation to get involved in all aspects of the industry.
