hmm.. could possibly be "Iron Will". It was a Disney movie about a kid who races with his father's dog in order to get the prize money and save his families farm and land
"Toby McTeague" (1986) is about this subject, but it's been awhile since I've seen it, so I'm not at all certain.

Actually, a number of films have been made about the Iditarod and other competitions. I'll check others besides the one above. For example, I found this one:
Murder on the Iditarod Trail (1996 TV movie)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0113871/
This one doesn't sound right either.
I'm just striking out here because I haven't found anything else from the Nineties. There is a movie titled "Balto", but it's animated.
I'll keep looking!
Mmmm Madam above me usually knows. Call of the Wild has sledding as does Sled Dogs.
I'm sure there are a few.
i agree with puppet but i think its snow dogs...
Theodore "Ted" Brooks (Cuba Gooding Jr.), a renowned dentist of Miami, Florida, travels to the wilds of Alaska to claim his inheritance left by his late mother - seven Siberian Huskies and a border collie - and discovers his roots. Totally out of his element, he has to face challenges he has never dreamed of: blizzards, thin ice, an intimidating, crusty old mountain man called Thunder Jack (played by James Coburn in one of his final roles),and the aggressive, defiant lead dog, Demon. All of this happens with the buzzing excitement of the Arctic Challenge Sled Dog Race which is only two weeks away.
During his stay in Tolketna, Brooks tries to find the reason he was given up for adoption, including any information about his father. Instead, he continues to encounter Thunder Jack, who wants all of his late mother's sled dogs, especially Demon, an evil dog. Brooks eventually feels that the truth is worth the dogs themselves, and trades them to Thunder Jack.
With the dogs, Thunder Jack takes part in the Arctic Challenge Race but is unable to finish it because of a storm. Meanwhile Brooks, who has returned home to Miami is learning that his personal journey isn't yet finished. Infuriated by evidence found proving Thunder Jack had lied, Brooks returns to Alaska looking for answers. When he learns of the missing musher and his team, he feels that this may be the opportunity to save a man, and perhaps find truth once and for all.
Brooks sets out to rescue to man who cheated him, and brings him across the finish line
