Indianapolis was a New Zealand bred Standardbred racehorse. He is notable in that he won three New Zealand Trotting Cup races, the richest harness race, and sometimes the richest horse race in New Zealand.[1] Indianapolis was one of two horses to win the NZ Trotting Cup three times, the other being False Step.
