Yeah, I remember him very well. Was probably the only good NYbred of the entire 1980's.

Thunder Puddles? Thunder Rumble? Fourstardave? Cupecoy's Joy?

Garthorn's Met Mile and Westchester. Taylor's Special's Blue Grass and Louisiana Derby. Phone Trick's San Carlos and True North.

Have you found of stash of old racing videos?

[Indian Charlie]

It's possible for me to get the videos down the road.

Nothing definite, but for reasons that are difficult to explain, I'd need to know requests soon.

I hope it comes to fruition.

Fourstardave to me was more a 90s horse, but ok.

thunder rumble was certainly 90s.

Thunder puddles was no Win.

cupecoys joy was just before my time really.

True. Thunder Rumble won the '92 Travers. Was thinking it was like '86. I was young.

There weren't many, regardless- I had actually just looked at a bunch from that era the other day when the question of NYB's in the BC came up. Most of the pedigrees were so nondescript, any that ended up great was sheer luck. Not so these days.

Yeah, clearly things are different.

NY had a lower quality breeding program than Washington state. Also, California, Fla obviously, maybe Maryland and VA too.

I still don't think they should count horses sired by stallions standing in KY as NY breds though.

Kantharos comes to mind this year.
