Any info on whether BELGRAVIA (USA) b. M, 1903 was raced and what kind of record would be greatly appreciated.

I'm researching my appendix QH foal's pedigree :)

All I know now is she apparently never had any stakes wins, but (as you may know) she bore the great sire BLACK TONEY and the top 2yo filly Bonnie Mary (Man O'War opponent).

Dam of the top sire Black Toney. Thus, she's in the pedigree of Aspidistra.

From this lovely site: http://www.tbheritage.com/Portraits/BlackToney.html

Black Toney was a half-brother to the stakes winners Franconi and Grosvenor (and later, to Bonnie Mary). Their dam was a half-sister to the outstanding runner and sire, Disguise and went back three generations to the remarkable broodmare Queen Mary, who also appeared in the pedigree Ben Brush (as dam of *Bonnie Scotland), making Belgravia inbred 4x3 to that great matron.
