![]() Well, when one person buys most of the good bloodlines, and then either doesn't race them or ruins them, top class racing goes down the toilet.

![]() I didn't even look at the pps....it was sort of obvious by the question. At least to old timers like me.

![]() 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.

That was when Theatrical made his US debut. Besides him - Pebbles, Strawberry Road, Lashkari, and Triptych all entered in the BC Turf. Strawberry Road was also Biancone - so Biancone trained both the sire and damsire of Cigar. |

As for Palace Music, did you notice that in his one really bad race, he got trounced by the grandsire of one of the greatest horses of the last 30 years? The other race he finished poorly, 4th by 9, he got beat by the underrated and forgotten Commanche Run. |

![]() 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? |

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.

![]() Maudlin won the race after Summing won the Belmont.
I bet two doubles.....Pleasant Colony and Highland Blade into Maudlin. I suck.
