  • Alphabet Soup Fraise Amazombie Gulch Black Tie Affair Little Mike Cajun Beat Precisionist Eldaafer Prized
    Alphabet Soup Fraise Amazombie Gulch Black Tie Affair Little Mike Cajun Beat Precisionist Eldaafer Prized 1996 Breeders’’ Cup Classic Winner AAllpphhaabbeett SSoouupp OFFICIAL 2016 OLD FRIENDS BREEDERS’ CUP PROGRAM Welcome In 1984, under a sunnier sky than anything the Beach Boys ever evoked, I was at Hollywood Park waiting for the gates to spring open revealing the greatest idea in the history of horse racing —the Breeders' Cup. For the uninitiated, the Breeders' Cup is like the World Series, NHL and NBA all in one day. And you might as well toss in the Super Bowl. Over the years, I've attended a dozen Breeders' Cups. I saw Precisionist win the 1985 Sprint at Aqueduct, and Fraise nip Sky Classic in the 1992 Turf at Gulfstream Park, and Black Tie Af fair’s dominating victory in the 1991 Classic at Churchill Downs. Now, they are all buried at Old Friends. And, while their exhilarating athleticism in front of a grandstand exploding with screaming fans still gets my heart pumping, it's their last days, with just a handful of us, that I remember the most. They all showed the same intelligence, grace and courage at the end as they did at the beginning. As we await the 33rd running of the Breeders' Cup at Santa Anita, I can walk around the farm and feed carrots to Classic winner Alphabet Soup (1996), Turf winner Little Mike (2012), Sprint winner Amazombie (2011), Marathoner Eldaafer (2010), and dozens of others who participated, including Silver Charm, Hidden Lake, Affirmed Success, Tinners Way, Touch Gold, and Game on Dude.

  • Old Friends Rapid Redux 2006 Ch G Pleasantly Perfect – Thiscatsforcaryl (Storm Cat)
    Old Friends Rapid Redux 2006 ch G Pleasantly Perfect – Thiscatsforcaryl (Storm Cat) Claimed for $6,250 in October 2010, Rapid Redux may not have seemed a likely maker of history. But by 2011 the gutsy chestnut gelding tied Citation’s record for 19 wins in one year. He surpassed the 19 consecutive wins in North American held jointly by Zenyatta and Pepper’s Pride and he still went on winning. By his retirement in early 2012, Rapid Redux had achieved a phenomenal 22 consecutive victories, a feat that will not be equaled any time soon. His remarkable achievement earned a special 2011 Eclipse Award and the Vox Populi Award, besting three other finalists—Uncle Mo, Goldikova and Havre de Grace. In 2012 Rapid Redux and his connections received a special award of merit from the Maryland Jockey Club. His contribution to the sport of racing in ordinary races at blue-collar tracks called attention to the achievements of the majority of horses, who never win a stakes but provide the daily thrills and livelihood of the sport. On May 31, 2012 Rapid Redux took an honored place among Old Friends retirees, where no less a patriarch than Gulch adopted him as a buddy. Old Friends thanks trainer David Wells and owner Robert Cole, Jr. for enabling Rapid Redux’s ongoing relationship with his fans. He continues to remind us of the durable valor of the best and toughest campaigners. If you would like a share in this horse, you may complete the form below. In return, you will receive an 8 ½ x 11 color photograph of Rapid Redux and a Share Certificate.
