Correct.

He was also the sire of the first of many great horses to run in my name. The good old days of 19K purses and 4K claimers - that ran every 3 weeks like clockwork.

This Ohio bred - debuted on the inner-track at AQU on March 4th ... and I believe might have even been the post time favorite in the Ky Derby just two months later.



Name him

That's amazing. I was in College then and barely remember him but seeing Frank Labocetta's name gave it away.

Another old one.

Not that much as a racehorse - but was a champion sire on multiple occasions and sired two of the better KY Derby winners ever.



Name him.
