Wow! That's impressive. Exactly right.....even the spelling.

She ran 48 times with 21 wins, 11 seconds, 6 thirds and won $737K in the 70s which is quite an accomplishment. She won 9 graded stakes races.

What a horse.

She was certainly a better horse than Jeffrey Fell was a rider. I have absolutely no idea what happened to him.

Way back when, Jeffrey Fell won an Arkansas Derby, defeating a colt called linkage.,who was like 2/5, With a horse i cant remember his name.He got me out for the weekend with that horse. He paid about 30.00. I remember that because i was dead broke ! I am pretty sure Jeff is in the Canadian Hall of Fame.

I recently took a course at NYU on the history of the Arkansas Derby.

I signed up to meet girls.....and tell the truth about Smarty Jones.

He made two starts as a 4YO.

He was better than Silver Charm.

You're not the only one, those two races you mentioned speak for themselves. Holy Bull needs no defending, he was...and forever will be..a great one...

His Woodward victory was brilliant....one of the best fields in the 90's

Nope. I too think Holy Bull deserves to be called great. His ability from 7f to 10f was very impressive.
It is just too bad that two of the big "rivalries that could have been," in the last decade or so - Cigar vs. Holy Bull, and Barbaro vs. Bernardini - ended mere seconds before began.
