At other times the passing may not grab one's attention at first, but of a sudden (like meeting a deadline), it pops into the brain and the "little grey cells," to paraphrase Hercule Poirot, start to process. Such is the case with the passing last month of Thunder Gulch and Elusive Quality, two accomplished racehorses and sires whose imprints are large, and who owe their existence to their two remarkable sires, Gulch and Gone West, respectively. The latter two had the distinction of being born in a year that perhaps rivaled international anxiety almost as much as Y2K would sixteen years later: 1984. George Orwell's somewhat poorly projected apocalyptic year notwithstanding, this crop of American-bred colts was a sight to see on the racetrack. You had Alysheba, champion at three and winner of the 1987 Kentucky Derby and Preakness, who was upset in the Belmont S. by Bet Twice. You had Capote, juvenile champion of the previous year, and Java Gold, who won Grade I races at two and three. Cont. p3 PUBLISHER & CEO Sue Morris Finley @suefinley [email protected]

The Other 1984 (cont. from p1) Then there was Cryptoclearance, seemingly indestructible multiple graded winner at three, four and five, and a bevy of others who etched their skills into racing fans' psyches--Afleet, Ascot Knight, Homebuilder, Leo Castelli, Lost Code, Pentelicus, Polish Navy, Seattle Dancer and Slew City Slew. Quite a crew. This correspondent had the honor and privilege of watching most of them closely on the backstretch as well as on the track-- a member of that crop bred, syndicated and managed by your correspondent by name of Omar Khayyam was stabled at Belmont Park and had the moxie to finish a close fourth to Leo Castelli, Gone West and Shawklit Won in the GIII Colin S., a major Belmont Stakes prep. These were very good horses, and our ownership group did not need the perspective of time to drop our collective jaws at the end of that race. What struck us during those heady days was how different-looking most of these horses were from each other and, upon further inspection, how their pedigrees matched up. Interestingly, this was the era in which Mr. Prospector established himself as an epochal sire. Four of his sons were Afleet, Gone West, Gulch, and Homebuilder, who all had the same versatile racing profile, while his son Fappiano was represented by distance-loving Cryptoclearance and the speedball Pentelicus. Mr. Prospector's great sire-line rival at stud was Alydar, the sire of Alysheba. Later, the perspective of time and the introduction of biomechanical analysis has given an eyebrow-arching insight into why only two of these colts went on to establish sire lines of their own--and how we have come to witness the end of one as the other goes from strength to strength. (Caveat: Cryptoclearance's son Ride the Rails begot Candy Ride (Arg), but that was a one-off, so to speak.) From a pedigree perspective, the money was always on Gone West, even though in truth, most considered Gulch to be a better racehorse (look up the records). The pedigree bias was clearly because of their dams' families. Gone West's dam was Secrettame, a nice, but not spectacular stakes winner by , Mr. Prospector's contemporary who by 1984 was considered somewhat of a disappointment as a sire. Secrettame brought one of the great heritages to the breeding shed: Her siblings included Tentam and Known Fact, outstanding milers on opposite sides of the Atlantic and very good sires. Their dam traced to Alope, whose daughter Aloe gave us Knight's Daughter, she responsible for Round Table and Monarchy, a very influential sire and broodmare, respectively.

On the other hand, Gulch's pedigree was more street-fighter An examination of the hidden reasons these two established than cricketeer. His dam Jameela was one of the toughest fillies themselves as the sires-of-the-crop lies in their biomechanical of the late 20th century, winning 27 of 58 starts including 17 profiles. This may be a tough sell to many who saw Gone West stakes--including a pair that were and Gulch daily on the track or Grade Is in New York. She was by who visited the breeding sheds at Rambunctious, a son of Rasper II Mill Ridge and Lane's End, whose line included that stallion respectively. They were the same and two other hard-knockers on size, had basically the same the track and at stud in Rock Talk dimensions in their and Talc, stalwarts of the Maryland measurements, and were as close and New York breeding programs, to being fraternal twins by respectively, in the 1980s.

Carol Culp

The Hall family has extensive ties to the Thoroughbred industry. Culp=s father Norman was a full-time horseman who was a frequent judge at the National Horse Show at Madison Square Garden, a Thoroughbred breeder and Huntsman for the Norfolk Hunt Club. The Norman Hall S. at Suffolk Downs was run annually in East Boston in his honor. Three of Culp=s four siblings continue to be involved in the horse industry. Dr. Pete Hall is a veterinarian who was stabled at Monmouth Park for over 25 years before Aretiring@ to join the Keeneland selections team. Dr. Hall was the attending veterinarian for Holy Bull. John Hall worked with Taylor Made Farm for over 20 years where he and his team raised the 2015 Triple Crown winner American Pharoah during his yearling year. Holly Hall runs an equine boarding facility at the location of the original Hall Family homestead in Massachusetts. Bill Hall may not have walked the path of a horseman, clearly the brains of the bunch, as he became a highly esteemed geophysicist. Culp=s legacy lives on as generations of her family continue to be involved in the horse industry. ANALYZE IT winning the the Transylvania S. (G3) at Keeneland
