*Sired by a Horse of the Year, I was bred in Kentucky by my owner. *I won just a shade under two-thirds of my starts while only finishing out of the money once, and that was the result of an injury. *Well traveled, I won stakes races on the East Coast, West Coast and the Midwest. *My victories came at a distance range of ten furlongs between the shortest and the longest, my losses ranged nine furlongs. *I was a stakes winner at six different tracks, but my first and last both came at Aqueduct. *My jockeys, including the Hall of Fame ones, liked to wear polka dots. *My Eclipse Awards were the result of my 2nd season on the track. *I once carried at least 130 ponds in six consecutive starts. *My sire won a double digit amount of stakes, and I won quite a few more than he did. *My greatest rival and I evenly split our four contests over two seasons. *Despite my name, I was born, bred, and raced in the USA. You should know by now … Who Am I ??? |

DAMASCUS
A New World's Record!!!
Damascus it is, and in one minute ... skipaway2000, you're my hero!
Tell us all how you got it so incredibly fast.
YAYY!!! I have been trying forever to win this! I love the Damascus/Dr. Fager rivalry, wish I'd seen it in person. I think the polka dots clue sealed it for me!
Wow. I didn't even read half of the hints and there's a winner. Good job, skipaway.
Congratulations! I have a feeling your record will never be broken, and I will never give polka dots as a clue again. ;-)
Hehehe, can I put the world record on my resume'?
Resume??? After tonight, I don't think you will even need a resume any more! ;-)
Darn it. Damascus, of course! I always think when I read these that it's going to be some unknown horse, at least one that isn't as known as Damascus. You're a tricky one Brian.
I missed last night but I see I would have never typed fast enough Great job skipaway
