Medaglia d'Oro Tribute (Request for babypenny9)

OWN NOTHING

I hope u like this tribute of this horse. He is a cool looken stallion. He is the father of Rachel Alexandra. Medaglia d'Oro finished second in his only race as a two-year-old in 2001.

Leading up to the 2002 U.S. Triple Crown series, Medaglia d'Oro won the San Felipe Stakes in California. In the first of the Triple Crown races, the 1¼ mile Kentucky Derby, Medaglia d'Oro was ridden by Laffit Pincay, Jr. to a fourth-place finish. In the ensuing 1³/16 mile Preakness Stakes, he ran eighth under Jerry Bailey then with Kent Desormeaux as his jockey, Medaglia d'Oro finished second in the longest of the series, the 1½ mile Belmont Stakes. From there, Medaglia d'Oro went on to win the Grade II Jim Dandy Stakes, the Grade I Travers Stakes at Saratoga Race Course and earned a second in the Woodward Stakes in New York. Under jockey Jerry Bailey, Medaglia d'Oro ran second to Volponi in the 2002 Breeders' Cup Classic

In 2003, Medaglia d'Oro was first or second in all five starts. Of his three wins, he won the Grade I Whitney Handicap and ran second to Pleasantly Perfect in the 2003 Breeders' Cup Classic. Sent back to the track in 2004, the five-year-old Medaglia d'Oro raced twice. He won January's Grade I Donn Handicap at Gulfstream Park in Florida then at the end of March, in what would be his last race, he finished second to Pleasantly Perfect in the Dubai World Cup at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in the United Arab Emirates. Well enjoy
