Silver,
Did you notice the end of the San Felipe? Now I am keeping in mind that he was gettin six pounds from the Black colt, but when St.Averil came to him, I don't that even past the wire he ever got by. Did that remind you of anything? :)
I read how Preachin got his name. There is a bartender in the clubhouse at Santa Anita named Nola. When she serves the customers drinks she dispenses a little bible verse with the libation. She was nicknamed "Holy Nola" by the trainers and owners there. One of them took her nickname for their filly. That filly is a mare now and her 2001 foal is Preachinatthebar. I've never been to Santa Anita, despite many chances to go. But the next time a trip comes up I just may accept and if I do one of the "must do's" of the trip will be a drink served by Holy Nola.
Then again, I'd have to listen to Trevor Denman
