Who Am I ???

*I won just under half of my lifetime starts, and I won at least twice in each of my four seasons of racing.

*I was bred in a country where I never once ran, even though I competed in four different nations.

*My mom majestically soared over the water, but my dad preferred things dry.

*I failed to be competitive and cash a check only once in my career. Unfortunately, it was in the richest race I ever ran, and also the longest.

*My last six races were all grade/group ones; I won the first, but lost the rest.

*I raced at 11 different tracks, and other than in Paris, I never raced at the same place twice in a row.

*Never afraid to carry weight, my average impost was just a shade under 127 pounds.

*It was more of the usual in my final career start, as I came running late.

*I spread out my three most important victories, with one in each of my final three seasons.

*My victories came on two different surfaces, although I won ten times as much on one surface than the other.

*Interesting tidbit on my trainer and jockey … they shared the same initials.

You should know by now … Who Am I ???
