March 29 - Vino Rosso

I just had to lump these two together. You see these boys were born on the same farm, John Gunter's Glenwood Farm, less than 24 hours apart. They were pasture buddies until they went to new owners.

Justify went on to win the Triple Crown for WinStar and China Horse Club and Vino Rosso went on to win the Breeders' Cup Classic for the partnership of Vinnie Viola and Mike Repole.

I think you must go back to Bold Ruler and Round Table to find two horses born on the same (more or less) day on the same farm that had such outstanding careers on the track.

Well done, John Gunter and his daughter Tonya; they put out a nice string of horses every year. But how do you top these two: A Triple Crown and a BC Classic?
