Either Dalhart or I Can't Believe.

If it's Loblolly colors he's wearing the former - if not - it's the latter. I can't tell with the black and white.

I think it's Boom Towner...

The Indomitable DrugS 02-19-2009 02:00 AM

he would have Barry Schwartz's silks in that case.

Boom Towner actually won his debut in a 5K MCL at Rockingham Park. I can't think of many better horses from the 90's who debuted for a nickle.

Del Mar Show trivia... name the BC Winner he defeated and the two graded races he won at now-defunct (at least for thoroughbred) tracks.

The Indomitable DrugS 02-20-2009 01:38 PM

He beat Volponi on the Saratoga turf. His two graded stake wins at now defunct tracks would be HIA and Rockingham.

No, good guess though.. this photo is a bit older..

Here's a couple hints, it's from 2000... The inside runner was a very fast horse who set a Belmont track record as a 2yr old in his maiden race...

Kelly Kip on the inside? Outside horse is I think a Mitch Friedman former claimer who I can't for the life of me remember the name.:mad:

Very good... that's Kelly Kip on the rail.. and you're right about the outside horse too.. he'd later go on to win the Carter that year..

It's a two word name...
