Last week’s Guess Who was a doozy, but luckily Brian Zipse of Horse Racing Nation is a fountain of knowledge about our sport and got the right answer: Nijinsky II, the last English Triple Crown winner. Thank you, Brian!
This week’s is also a challenge: This Maryland bred was a contemporary of a classic winner, a historic name that is only one of three to accomplish this. This horse’s sire was also distinctive in a very unique way himself. This horse also has ties to Belair Stud, but the connection may not immediately obvious. Who is this horse, name this horse’s sire, and then name the connection to Belair.

Sir Gallahad in pedigree

I am stumped. I’m taking a wild guess with Godswalk. He was sired by Dancer’s Image, and is descended from Teddy, who is Gallant Fox’s grandsire. I could be completely wrong. ;D
Good try! Not quite though.
