That same fall, Smith and his agent chose to ride Sky Beauty over Heavenly Prize from McGaughey's barn, and in the following spring completed their blunder trifecta by selcting to ride Talkin Man over Thunder Gulch in the Kentucky Derby. It was estimated that the Smith/Adika team cost themselves approximately 22 grade one victories just on those three horrible decisions alone. Smith became sour and when Bailey slipped into his place on Cigar he was able to steal the Mott barn from Smith(who was on thin ice there for smarting off to Mott after losing a stakes race in which Mott blamed his ride) and the Bailey era began. YOu still need to answer the other two questions though Da Hoss in order to get full credit. |

I think you will find that the third place horse in the Champagne was third in afew other stakes but could only muster a fifth in his only Triple Crown Race.
Just a hint as I am a latecomer to the question and perhaps I am incorrect!!! |

Here's one....
Only one stakes race has had a triple dead heat for win. Race, year, horses? |
#128

|

the race was the Carter at Aqueduct
because I believe they talked about it at this year's Carter running but I don't know the rest (3 horses) |

There have been two triple crown race winners who have raced on the "lowly" Aqueduct inner dirt track.
Name them. |

I knew Jazil was one of them, and two more are Smarty Jones and Prairie Bayou. But I was not aware that Summing raced there. |

Also KING'S SWAN was the other horse in PE's Whitney. |

Here's one:
What was the significance of the win by Majestic Number at Gulfstream Park in February of 1996? |

I'm gonna take a guess here. I know Pletcher trained him at some point. I remember cashing a ticket on him. I know Todd went on his own in 1995 in the spring. I know this because a former friend of mine was one of the first guys to give him horses when he went on his own. So it couldn't have been his first winner. Maybe his first stakes win? Maybe his first win at Gulf? |

It was Todd's first win as a trainer!
DING DING!!!! We have a winner! |

Once upon a time, there was an ambulance driver who entered a raffle.
He had the winning ticket, and his prize was a horse. Now this horse is special cause he's entered in the (HK$8 million) Champions Mile at Sha Tin on Sunday. Which horse is it? |
