I don't think that Well Monied has been mentioned in this thread. Second in the American Oaks, after taking the Honeymoon Handicap.

Thank you very much Georgerz!

If she had run during the 1970s she would have been labeled as a
(wrongly so-called) "roan", just as Winning Colors (1985) was so registered.

Vineyard Haven crossed the finish line first in the King Bishop - GrI, only to be disqualified for severe interference in the stretch.

Glad to know that Western Smoke's sire got another precocious juvenile at this stage of his career. Great!

There is no doubt that Tapit is rapidly ascending through the ranks and becoming a very serious sire. That's good news for the gray camp!

Thank you very much Georgerz
