 Orlov trotters had already proved to be the best racing horses in Russia and soon they proved to be the best in Europe.In 1867, Orlov trotter Beduin made headlines when, at World's Fair in Paris, it covered 3500 feet in 1 minute 32 seconds – 4 seconds ahead the fastest Standardbred mare, Flora Temple.Since then many trotters have been sold abroad where they greatly contributed to the creation of local trotting breeds.
