Well, yeah, it was obvious, however, he bothered to block out that she was bred in Oklahoma, while leaving up the 3yo grey filly portion of her pps.

I was going to say Banner Bob, but I think he was a Ky bred on further reflection.

I guess Groovy, though I was no fan of his. I have a feeling I am forgetting someone pretty obvious.

How about you?

No, it's Groovy.

He was freakishly good. He beat Turkoman at 7F as a 3YO....and Turkoman was good fresh. This was all after running in the Derby I think. They tried, but they couldn't ruin him.

I'm sure not the best Texas Bred ... but there was a good one in the Carter with Cannon Shell and A Phenomenon...



"The great Ann-Tone" even rode him.

Maudlin won the race after Summing won the Belmont.

I bet two doubles.....Pleasant Colony and Highland Blade into Maudlin.

I suck.

Assault was a Texas-bred.

Thanks, I had a feeling I was forgetting someone major, but tricky.

Who can guess Top Avenger's claim to fame. I'll give a hint. He gave his connections six furlongs of thrill.
