Our last Guess Who? was over a month ago. You guys, I apologize for my deliquency! Between the end of the school year and working on other writing projects, I had to put this little trivia game aside for a moment. However, I am ready to stump you guys again!

The answer to the last Guess Who? was the filly Love Sign. If you haven’t heard of this wonderful filly, I recommend learning more about her in my article at The Racing Biz. Her sire was Spanish Riddle, who is unique because he survived a typically fatal injury thanks to a revolutionary prosthetic that allowed him to walk and live several years after his initial injury. In her pedigree, Love Sign has two connections to Belair: Flares, a son of Gallant Fox, is on her sire side while Omayya, sired by Gallant Fox, is on her dam side. She also is contemporary of Genuine Risk, racing against the 1980 Kentucky Derby winner more than once.

This week’s horse comes from a stable of red and blue that dominated a decade much like Belair dominated the 1930s. This horse shares an elite distinction with more than one Belair horse and has a pedigree connection that might take a bit of digging to find. Who is this horse and what is the connection?
