Correct.

She was probably most famous for winning the Breeders Cup Distaff by 7 lengths in 2:02.40 when the males in the Breeders Cup Classic needed 2:03.40 that same day ... but she also won the Kentucky Oaks at odds of 1/5 to stay undefeated.



Name her.

I don't know CJ's answer. I'm not that old.

This one isn't so hard ... he didn't win often, and he danced all the dances starting with 4.5f KEE races ...but he did win a big one.

Correct.

Yes -- the 1st cut of PP's is Waquoit at the start of his career. This one is the tail end.

This horse failed in North America for whatever reason ... but she won the Arc at 37/1 the following season and has been quite the producer.

What's even more interesting is who won the race right before his maiden win, the Widener.

His stablemate...who was also his entrymate in the BC Classic less than a year later.

( I hit the late double ).
