Hi reenci,
Strange as it is yes...only Whirlaway. You have to at least mention that colt who beat Affirmed in the Travers....Alydar, even under the circumstances...it was a legit DQ:>) TJ

It rates mention that only one horse in seventy years has won the Kentucky Derby, the Belmont Stakes, and the Travers.
