A Classy Chick, the dam of Chicks Beduino, si 104, did not repay her $12,500 claiming price on the track, but she more than made up for it as a broodmare. A Classy Chick, si 89, by Chick's Deck, was consigned to the 1979 All American Yearling Sale by Don Keith and trainer Don Farris. Dr. Ed Allred purchased her for $11,000. A Classy Chick broke her maiden in her first start as a two-year-old in May, but she did not reappear again until December. She was unsuccessful in three starts against allowance company at Los Alamitos, and Dr. Allred finally put her in a claimer. John Bobenrieth, Jr and Joe Muniz claimed the mare, thinking she would be a good broodmare. They first took her to Dixie Downs for another chance on the track, but when A Classy Chick tried to jump a puddle on a muddy track, she ended up with a slab fracture in her knee. Her racing career was over. She was bred first to Timeto Thinkrich, then the following year to Beduino TB. The Beduino colt was Chicks Beduino. A Classy Chick was plagued by lingering complications from her injury and had to be put down in 1985, when Chicks Beduino was a yearling. What an incredible posterity that mare with a humble race record now has!

Afton Creek

Aforethought

Thoroughbred. Sired by Intentionally and out of Aspidistra.

Alibhai

1938-1960. By Hyperion out of Teresina Bred by the Aga Khan &  is notable for being one of the few successful stallions of the modern era who was unraced.  Alibhai was imported to the U.S. as a yearling & put in training, but bowed both front tendons & never started. He was put to stud as a three-year-old in 1941 at Mayer's farm in California &  was an immediate success. Syndicated & moved to Kentucky for the 1947 season at Spendthrift Farm, he died there in 1960 at the age of 22.  A light chestnut with a small star & three white feet, he was very long bodied, muscular, with a cresty neck, & a noticeably dipped back. He had a long forearm but was extremely light of bone below the knee, the probably reason for his bowing. In all, Alibhai sired 54 stakes winners, led by the champion two- & three-year-old filly Bowl of Flowers, from his last crop, foals of 1961. He also sired Kentucky Derby winner Determine & champion handicap mare Bornastar. Of importance to Quarter Horse enthusiasts, Alibhai sired the mare Hide And Seek who produced Find A Buyer, the dam of the great Dash For Cash.

Almahmoud

1947-1971. Blue Hen mare. Although nothing special to look at, she was a stakes winner at ages 2 & 3, & her blood has transformed the breed through her grandsons Halo &  Northern Dancer. She was known for being high-strung & tended to pass it on.  An interesting point about Almahmoud is that many of her greatest descendants are inbred to her. Her offspring crossed particularly well with descendants of Nearco. Her first foal was Cosmah, by Cosmic Bomb. Cosmah, a stakes winner, was the dam of 4 stakes winners including Tosmah &  Halo. She is also the dam of 6 producing daughters, her best-known is Natalma (x Native Dancer), dam of the legendary Northern Dancer. No other stallion has had the influence on modern breeding that Northern Dancer had. Natalma also produced 3 other stakes winners & 5 producing daughters, including Northern Dancer’s only full sister Arctic Dancer, who is the dam of US & Canadian Champion La Prevoyante plus two more stakes producers. Matriarch mare of the 20th century. c.v. Whitney breeder (KY). Won $32,700.

1953. Thoroughbred by Degage out of L'Admiralte. Winner of 12 races, 6 seconds, five thirds, and $39,030, including Oceanside Handicap at Del Mar in 1:09 3/5. Most of his winning races were wire to wire. A 1962 ad for Vessels Ranch, in California, has him standing for $500.

Bimelech

Bimelech was best runner sired by Black Toney.

Black Toney

1911. Thoroughbred. By Peter Pan. He was the foundation stallion for the great 20th Century American breeder Edward R. Bradley, owner of the famous Idle Hour Stock Farm, Lexington, Kentucky.
Black Toney started a total of 40 times over four season of racing, winning 13 races and earning $13,565. As a racer, Black Toney was well below top class, but as a sire, he proved to have few equals. Black Toney was the Leading Juvenile Sire in America in 1939, when his best runner Bimelech was two. Later crops included champion and Kentucky Derby legend Black Gold, another Kentucky Derby winner in Brokers Tip, and champions Bimelech, Balladier, Black Helen, Black Maria, as well as the top stakes winners Big Hurry, Broadway Jones, etc. He tended to sire speed and precociousness, but his offspring showed a lot of durability. His sireline carried forward with strength through Black Servant (sire of champions Blue Larkspur, Barn Swallow, Baba Kenny, Big Pebble), Balladier (sire of Spy Song, Double Jay, Mr. Music, Ky. Colonel, Papa Redbird), and Bimelech (sire of Better Self, Brookfield, Dark Ruler). Broker's Tip sired champion Market Wise (sire of To Market). Black Toney's daughters were good producers.

Bloody Blade

TB son of Blade.

1926. Thoroughbred by Black Servant. Bred in Kentucky by E. R. Bradley's Idle Hour Stock Farm, Blue Larkspur was one of the best, if not the best runner to come from Idle Hour's paddocks (16 starts, ten wins - up to 12 furlongs - and earnings of $272,070). Known for his speed and courage, fighting physical infirmities. At stud he became a major sire and one of the most important broodmare sires of the 20th Century. Several of his sons became respectable stallions (Revoked, Blue Swords, Blue Gay, Boxthorn, Blue Flyer, Bold and Bad, Best Seller), Blue Larkspur gained an even greater reputation as one of the best broodmare sires of his era. Blue Larkspur mares crossed with everything, but were particularly effective with Calumet Farm's stallion Bull Lea. Blue Larkspur was an extremely handsome, well-balanced individual. His head was a little plain with an almost convex profile, but put on an elegant, powerful neck. Gifted with a beautiful shoulder and well developed hindquarter with a long, sloping hip, Blue Larkspur's major flaw was a lightness of bone which he inherited from his dam's sire, North Star III. He was a solid dark bay with the left hind coronet white in back. When Col. Bradley died in 1946, his bloodstock was dispersed, including the treasured stallions. Twenty-year-old Blue Larkspur became the property of King Ranch and was relocated to the King Ranch property just across the Old Frankfort Pike from Idle Hour Stud. He died in 1947 at the age of 21.

Broodmare sire of Spectacular Bid, Bold Forbes & Ruffian, etc. An iron horse in the 1950s who became a major influence in the world of breeding Thoroughbreds, Bold Ruler is an unquestionable legend. Three weeks after his son Secretariat went to the training farm, Bold Ruler was put down as his pain increased and health declined due to cancer. He was just 17 years old. He was buried at Claiborne Farm.

Not only was Busanda by War Admiral, & therefore a granddaughter of Man O' War himself, but she was also out of a mare by Blue Larkspur, the 1929 Belmont Stakes winner and Horse of the Year. 

Busher

Busher was one of the last champions campaigned in Col. Bradley's green & white silks. She earned a championship as a two-year-old, when she won five of seven starts, including the Adirondack Stakes, Matron Stakes, & the rich Selima Stakes. World War II caused the temporary suspension of racing in the United States from January to May of 1945. Consequently, Col. Bradley sold a good number of his horses in training, Busher included. The champion filly was purchased by Hollywood mogul Louis B. Mayer for $50,000 & shipped cross country to her new quarters at Santa Anita Park. She swiftly recouped her purchase price, earning $273,735 during her second season at the track. As a three-year-old, she swept nearly all before being named champion three-year-old filly & Horse of the Year. Busher did not race at four, & at five was unplaced in an overnight race. Mayer retired her & later that year sold her to Elizabeth Arden Graham's Maine Chance Farm for $150,000. Inducted into the National Museum of Racing & Hall of Fame in 1964. Busher had only five foals before her premature death after foaling in 1955. But she produced the good stakes winning Jet Pilot colt Jet Action, her only foal to reach the races. American Grade I winners Beau's Eagle & Favorite Funtime trace to Busher through her daughter Miss Busher, by Alibhai.

Cherry Lake

1966 Thoroughbred mare by Lake Erie (son of War Admiral) out of a daughter of Nechao named Cherao. "Double Copy" mare. In her racing career she started both Quarter Horse & Thoroughbred races. On the quarter tracks, her record was twenty-one starts, ten wins, four seconds and two thirds in three years. She earned a Speed Index rating of 97 and was a stakes winner. Her total quarter track earnings were $16, 651.00. As a three year old she started nine times on the Thoroughbred tracks, with three wins and a third place finish and earnings of $6109.00. As a four year old she raced twice on the Thoroughbred tracks, with one win for $935.00. Cherry Lake was one of the 39 mares test-bred to Dash For Cash in his first season at stud. The grand ol' mare died on July 1, 1993, just 16 days before the Phillips Ranch was to be dispersed. She was the first Thoroughbred mare inducted to the AQHA Hall of Fame. Cherry Lake whipped Quarter Horses on their own track, but it was her offspring that made her a household name in the Quarter Horse racing industry. Cherry Lake's foals earned $1,853,952, ranking her fifth-leading dam of earners and the richest not represented by an All American Futurity winner. Among her foals were Cash Rate, Flow of Cash, Six Popper and Counting The Cash. Six Popper won the All American Derby in 1986 and Cash Rate was the 1985 World Champion Quarter Running Horse. She was also dam of Right to Run, an unraced stallion by Go Man Go. Cherry Lake died July 1, 1993.

Chicado V

 1950. Chicado V was going great guns when she pulled up lame, never to run again. In the breeding pen, though her name has been immortalized by the pounding hoofs of a succession of superlative offspring. Near as I recall she’s produced five Top AAA sprinters, plus several AAAs and one begetter that never set hoof on a track – Triple Chick. 

Chicaro

Clabber

1936-1947. He was nicknamed the Iron Horse because he stayed sound in spite of years of hard use. Clabber was a powerfully made horse who could pass on his speed and durability.

Corona Chick

Count Fleet

Thoroughbred. 1940-1973. Count Fleet won ten of fifteen starts as a 2-year-old, & the racing public was already talking Triple Crown after he was assigned 132 pounds in the Experimental Handicap ratings. Further compliments were added as he was labeled the "clear successor to Man O'War." Count Fleet lived up to the honor, going undefeated and winning the Triple Crown at three.

1960 bay mare by Custus Rastus TB, out of Leolib (by Leo). A favorite of Lou & Libby Tuck, her breeders. Suffered a severe blow to head when only a couple of months old which necessitated help nursing. Recovered, after a fashion, but it took years before she got any kind of true mobility back. Unable to race, she was bred as a 3-year-old to Buzz Bar. The resulting colt was Little Town, who became a AAA-rated Superior race horse, an AQHA Supreme Champion & a leading sire. Bred back to Buzz Bar 8 more times & produced 6 more AAA runners, including Royal Doulton, si 100, 8-times stakes winner. In 1975, she was sold & bred to Shecky Greene & produced a AAA horse. Bred to Easy Jet 3 times, produced Easy Custus, si 95, Easy Jet Liz, si 98, Custus Jet Lizzie, si 103. She not only produced speed, but good looks.

He was named the 1976 & 1977 Racing World Champion, Superior Racehorse, 1976, and set two track records including 9 stakes races. Dash for Cash demonstrated his extreme athletic abilities by finishing no less than second in every race he entered except one. Before long he became one of the most sought after bloodlines of any stallion because of his offspring’s ability to excel not only on the track but also in the barrel arena. Even several years after Dash For Cash’s death, there is still a big demand for his daughters as broodmares. He was the sire of 1,353 foals with offspring earnings more than $39 million on the track, 1 AQHA Supreme Championship, 880 ROM, 39 world championships, and 135 stakes winners.

Domino

"The Domino effect... Speed, speed, and more speed. Domino created a dynasty in North America" (Major Daingerfield)

1981-97. Dark brown colt by Himyar. Domino was one of the best sprinter-milers of all time in North America. 25 starts, 19 wins. Earned $193,550. Raced most of the time with bad feet. Inscription on his gravestone reads" "Here lies the fleetest runner the American turf has ever known, and one of the gamest and most generous of horses." Died at only 6 years of age. He sired only 20 progeny, of which 8 were stakes winners. Of his nine sons, four were gelded and one died, so the odds were stacked against him that his line would ever persist. He sired Caps and Bells, the first American-bred to win the English Oaks, and Belmont Stakes winner and two-time Horse of the Year Commando, who in turn sired a number of top horses one of whom was hall of famer, Colin. Daughter Pink Domino was dam of Sweep, grandsire of War Admiral. Eight Thirty, War Relic, Mr. Busher, Buckpasser, and Intent's pedigrees heavily influenced by Domino.

Easy Jet

Easy Jet was sired by the great Jet Deck, and out of a mare named Lena's Bar, a thoroughbred that was a truly great race horse herself, outrunning such legends as Go Man Go and Double Bid. As a 2 year old, Easy Jet won the All American Futurity and numerous other prestigious races. He was named Champion 2-year-old colt, and in this same year was named World Champion Quarter Running Horse and Champion Stallion, titles seldom bestowed upon a 2-year-old. He rose to fame at the height of the Quarter Horse racing game, when the southwest was rich with oil and gas money. In 1980, Easy Jet stood for a fee of $30,000, and was later syndicated for $30 million! He produced just over 2,500 registered foals, placing him near the top of the all time AQHA producer list. Easy Jet remained an equine celebrity throughout his life, influencing people as well as horses. There is little doubt that he will remain one of the greatest Quarter Horses of all time. Easy Jet endured an incredible schedule during his 2-year-old year, racing way more than other horses his age, and he remained sound and willing. In fact, he remained sound his entire life. Then there is energy. It was said of him that he was a "busy" horse, always active and wanting to move. When that energy was channeled into racing, he achieved greatness. And Easy Jet wasn't just fast, he was quick. Walter Merrick, Easy Jet's owner, made these comments in interviews with Barrel Horse News: "I think his bone had a lot to do with it (his retiring sound). He was just always sound. He never had a sore day in his life." "He never was a mean colt at all, but he was on his toes all the time. He never did have any buck in him, but he was just a hyper-kind of horse ... he could move so quickly, so fast, it was hard to stay with him." "Anything that's got Easy Jet in it, they could run. They have good minds on them, and they're smart. You could teach them about anything."  Easy Jet achieved success as a stallion because he was able to pass on the traits that made him great.
