Finalloppet kördes på Hollywood Park Racetrack i Inglewood i Kalifornien.[1] Loppet kördes inledningsvis över distansen 1609 meter med autostart (1955–1960) men utökades sedan till distansen 1 811 meter med autostart. (1961–1981).[2]
American Trotting Classic ersatte loppet Golden West Trot som hade körts mellan 1946 och 1954 på både Santa Anita Park och Hollywood Park.[3] Loppet kördes samtidigt som American Pacing Classic för passgångare.
