I can’t read a recounting like this without recalling Spectacular Bid.
To prep for the Triple Crown, the Bid won four Florida preps: Hutcheson, Fountain of Youth, Flamingo and Florida Derby, before moving on to Kentucky and taking the Blue Grass and Derby.
The Bid went on to have one of the great campaigns in thoroughbred history as a 4YO, setting track records and carrying significant weight at distances from 7 to
10 furlongs.
You can look it up.
