He was a tough horse for a very long time. He was injured more than once, but kept coming back in good form.

He was highly touted early as a 3yo but was absolutely dusted (along with several others) by Holy Bull in the Florida Derby. That pretty much knocked him off the Derby trail, but he came back well enough to hold his own against his elders in some big races later that year.

Not counting the Big Cap, which preceded a 6-month layoff, Dramatic Gold was the only horse to finish in front of BC Classic winner Alphabet Soup in '96.
