*I was born in Maryland, became a star in New York, and passed away in Kentucky.
*If you added up all of my losses, the sum total would be but one.
*In my only race at Saratoga, I won by more than 7 lengths. My only race at Keeneland, I won by twice that much.
*My trainer was born in Kentucky, became a hero in New York, and passed away in Florida.
*When I won my Eclipse Award, I was still undefeated.
*It is no wonder that I could run, both my Dad and my Mom produced champions other than myself.
*At stud I produced many stakes winners and four millionaires, but my only champion raced far removed from his proud papa.
*I raced less than 10 times, but I made a lasting impression on those who saw me in person.
*I had both a full sister and a full brother who were major stakes winners, proof that Mom and Dad really loved each other.
*My final 5 stakes wins were at 5 different tracks and in 4 different states.
*I was retired to a farm in Kentucky mainly because I was more valuable at stud, than I was on the track.

Nashua, Trained by Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons.

Sorry Nancy, it is not Nashua.
Devil's Bag?
We have a new champion...CJ! The correct answer is the 1983 Juvenile Champion, Devil's Bag. Syndicated for $36 million while still a 2-year-old, the Woody Stephens trained colt was a son of Halo out of Ballade, who also produced Glorious Song and Saint Ballado together. Well done CJ!
just a test to see if I can comment.
I finally got one! I saw Devil's Bag win the Champagne many years ago.
This is the first time I have commented and I wanted to say that I am loving what you are doing. You should right for the Racing Form. Keep up the good work!
