I agree that "Bold Forbes" has to be in the conversation of great 20th Century Horses! I was fortunate to own a daughter of his, and she was the start of me getting into racing and breeding. Got to see him along with up close touching Secretariat, Sham, Affirmed, Slew, etc..

Re: Famous Racehorses in the 20th Century
Looks like last week's question was a stumper (the answer was Omar Khayyam, the 1917 Derby winner). Who's up for this week's question? http://www.americanclassicpedigrees.com/hoofprints

I'll guess that the first one was in a year in which a Preakness winner did not participate.
The other ... 1987?

Hi Mahubah,
That was quite an appropriate question, considering there's a good possibility that rarity might play out again this year...fingers crossed:>). TJ

Re: Famous Racehorses in the 20th Century
Last week was apparently a stumper; the answer I was looking for was Flying Ebony, the 1925 Kentucky Derby winner. I'll be taking a break through the rest of the month; see you all in August!
