Wow! I thought last week’s was tough, but Mirkwood guessed it within a day: the horse in question was Celt! He was Marguerite’s sire and a stablemate of the great Colin. Celt also had a far more prolific stud career than his fabled cohort. Great job, Mirkwood!

This week, I am going to try to make this one tough. This horse was bred and raced outside of the United States. His sire also was bred and raced outside of the United States and both sire and son are classic winners in multiple countries. However, this horse has a thoroughly American pedigree with connections to at least THREE American Triple Crown winners in his pedigree. Who is he and what is his connection to Belair Stud?
