I have no idea. Confide? Forest Wildcat? Conveyer? Meadow Monster?

Correct.

I was a fan of his. I would always swear to pops and gramps that he was going to get there the next time. Gramps bet him so many times that he started calling him "Strike The Sh!t"

Kind of ironic that his next win was the Pimlico Special given his effort in the Preakness the year before and the track's tendency to go against his one-run style.

Fly So Free running second made it an ultimate comeback race of sorts. Didn't last long though.

It was a little earlier.. 1994, they purchased him after he won the Boojum over Birdonthewire, Harlan, Lite The Fuse etc..

He had won five in a row going into the Breeders Cup.. ended up being the fourth betting choice in the sprint..

I had to look it up. I didn't even remember Meritocrat was a New Farm horse.

Won the final 6 firm turf races of his career ...

Yep. Was 7 lengths clear of 3rd place in the soggy Breeders Cup Mile.

I'm going to have to start posting forms of greyhounds to get something by you and Rollo.
