And as my NY Bred Friend Bold Richening would say, \"A Good Horse can come from anywhere. Remember when I crushed the Derby with Funny Cide?\"
http://www.pedigreequery.com/funny+cideThe NY Thorobred Slow Rat is a sight to behold, but every now and then you get a Bustin Stones, or a Thunder Rumble, or Funny Cide, or even a Z Fortune.
A good horse can come from anywhere, but a bad horse is usually a NY Bred, or a Pletcher auction acquisition or a Team Valor initiated private purchase. (There are exceptions.)
2002 War Emblem :23.25, :47.04, 1:11.75, 1:36.70, 2:01.13
2007 Hard Spun :22.96, 46.26, 1:11.13, 1:37.04, 2:02.57
War Emblem\'s fractions were not soft. They were legitimate. However, he did come home pretty stong too.
