Great Britain
I was amazed the name was allowed, but allowed it was and Great Britain won today at Tampa. Regally bred by English Channel out of multiple stakes winning mare Rutherienne, Great Britain was very professional in his first win today. Congratulations to Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners and Stone Farm (who are having a good day)!
