[QUOTE="Son of Butch, post: 1803902, member: 14585"] Spectacular Bid -1979 was a special horse - he holds the Kentucky Derby record 2:02.40 and won the Preakness, he injured his foot before the Belmont, he stepped on a safety pin the morning of the race. But the owners chose to run him just the same and he finished 3rd. The pin was embedded in his foot, it became infected and was later surgically removed. 26 wins in 30 races. As four yr old in 1980 in final year of racing was 9-0 setting 5 track records and won American Horse of The Year. Then the colt purchased for 37,000 was syndicated for 22 million and retired to stud. Spectacular Bid 1976-2003 27 yrs 4 m [/QUOTE]
